Chapter 4: Asia and Europe Nehru takes us on a journey through history, contrasting the ancient greatness of Asia with Europe’s modern dominance. From the ancient civilization of Mohenjo Daro to Asia’s waves of conquerors, he reflects on the shifting tides of power and Asia’s awakening, poised to shape the future.
