I think this is really cool that you are studying what makes them so smart. I understand race cannot make one 'better' or 'smarter' than another and this is the perfect explanation. It is their environment. This is similar to my project about how environment and factors of your life make you who/how you are. This
is also sort of similar to Europe and how their geography and resources allowed them
to succeed in advancing and taking over land. They weren't 'born' with it either and they're not 'better' because they are European.
