Friends, doesn't the question ever cross your mind why, compared to other creatures, only Sapiens rule the world today? Well, there are many reasons for this, and the biggest reason is our language. But this doesn't mean that animals don't have language. For example, monkeys screech to warn about a lion's approach, and bees buzz to indicate where the flowers are. But our language has a unique quality: we can gossip and imagine. While a monkey can only communicate whether a lion is coming or going, we can tell our group how long the lion was there, which river it was drinking from, and even discuss hunting that lion together the next morning. We can share our opinions with each other using our language. We can even specify how many lions there are, but other creatures can't communicate such details.
The second thing is that Sapiens possessed the most powerful and revolutionary ability: the ability to talk about things that don't actually exist, things that only exist in our imagination, such as ghosts, gods, countries, laws, companies, and money. No monkey can say, "If you give me a banana, you will get many bananas in monkey heaven after you die." This power of imagination was unique to Sapiens. This ability to believe in imaginary stories united us into large groups. Perhaps these different groups created their own religions, castes, and faiths.
Friends, our ability to gossip also helped us identify who was trustworthy and who was deceitful within the group, which strengthened social bonds and allowed us to form large communities.
Friends, whatever we learned through language, we were able to pass on to the next generation, which allowed our next generation to adapt to nature even more quickly.
Conclusion:
Friends, Sapiens were able to rule because they could weave stories and collectively believe in those stories. Through language, they could communicate with each other... They could communicate well and share their life experiences with the coming generations.
Thank you, my dear friends.
