No that is incorrect. The Americas did have domestic animals. The horse came from Americas, but that's another story. North America's did have dog which were used as beast of burden. And South America had Llamas and pack as. Unfunatley the horse had died off. ( there are many option why this happen but the important thing is they all had died) BUT The important thing is, as far as I have seen, they did NOT have the wheel. No wheel means no charriot ( which was used before the horse was rode) and no wagons or carts. Maybe I'm wrong on not having the wheel, but I think that was the problem. I mean there was some huge American civilization. Aztec, Maya, and Inca were just a few, but there were many more. Funny those three were very similar. There were ones very different from them. There were civilization that have not been found yet. For instance there is this place that today is a desert where water is 1500 down. 1000 years ago it was a lake. Recent find found there was a civilization there 600 years ago. What is confusing is why other animals were not domesticated. Some will say thing like you can domesticated buffalo. Sure you can, just as dog and cattle were. But instead of eating the weakest ones, breed them until you get what you want. Now I want to bring up another aspect. Ok old world domesticated animals. New world domesticated crops. Yet no one domesticated fish. Sure you have fish farms now. But still that is far behind the other two.

Great video Cogito! Always love when you post new content. France has quite a fun story when it comes to potatoes. It was long believed to be good only for pigs but a certain Mr. Parmentier realized its high potential in feeding the masses so he asked the king to create a prestigious but extremely secrete potato garden in one of his castles. From there, people got curious and potatoes became much more prestigious and accepted countrywide. Now we have a mashed potato and meat dish named after him - Hachis Parmentier.

This was truly a fascinating video. No wonder Mark Watney from "The Martian" chose to grow potatoes to survive on Mars.

This is why there’s no potato resource in civ games, they’d be too overpowered

And to think that those farmlabs are still up there until today. The ancient Peruvians were so resourceful to build these labs that they even used meteor craters for that purpose. Also the millenium consistent trade held between the Pacific coast and the Andes region helped bring guano from the sea to the top of the mountains and potatoes and corn that grew in the Andes could feed seaside population. This trade was sustained over the complex system of roads that connected the former Inca empire. So it's not only agriculture and genetics, but also engineering and society design what supported the development and sustain of such an advanced agriculture system. Great video, awesome research!
