That was true to a point, but lots of countries have chosen to develop around Western values/institutions pretty late in the game, especially in Asia. I mean we're talking post-WW2 (in China's case, from like the 90s).
There are, theoretically, other systems that could have developed the world, but they're incompatible with the world as, is. And I'm not referencing Communism, because that's a spinoff of Western culture and not something separate.

You sure you have enough qualifiers there?
The world largely advanced through and because of Western Culture. You can say it; the Woke Police won't come after you. Maybe in 200 years Asia will have taken the baton and gone further and faster with it, but right now the bolded is accurate. Yes, a butterfly flapping it's wings 10,000 years ago theoretically could have resulted in Wakanda, but it didn't.
