Nobody burned the library of Alexandria it probably died from neglect, but Europeans did burn ~every book ever produced in central america and extinguished hundreds of unique cultures and languages. Western culture is a dark age IMO. And I'm not saying dark ages don't exist elsewhere. Europe may be fanatically xenophobic, but they aren't entirely unique either. Just the most successful at spreading darkness.
