This list from Time is revealing. Almost all of them are Europeans. Even Time is indirectly saying we live in a European world. You just can't say it directly because that's "white supremacy".

Time must have a different idea of significant. They rank George W. Bush, Charles Dickens, Reagan, da Vinci, Beethoven, Mozart, Einstein, Marx, and Shakespeare ahead of Genghis Khan. Alexander the Great is at number 9, so there is no reason Genghis Khan shouldn't be right near him. No Mao but Stalin and Lenin.

Putting Lincoln directly ahead of Washington says a lot about their mindset too.

All the culture creators are Europeans.
