      Modern India is not the Indus valley civilization. And China still exists and is arguably a superpower, unlike India.

    We don't know much about the Indus Valley Civ but there doesn't seem to be any evidence of warfare or destructive periods before its collapse

    >Which was objectively the most influential?
    Mesopotomia

    >Finally, if you were to live in one, which would it be?
    None, civilization is the Anti-Christ

        Nobody really knows , i think the common consensus is climate change caused their agriculture to collapse and then they migrated east with the aryans.

        They collapsed because the climate in their region became drier and the retards didn't use irrigation IIRC
        Aryans came later and mixed with the Indus people as they moved eastward

          They did use irrigation
          Noe one really knows why they collapsed, one theory is that their main river (not the Indus) dried up

    >Which was objectively the most advanced?
    Roughly the same I think, with maybe Egypt as the close number 1
    >Which was objectively the most kino?
    Mesopotamia, though I always have a soft spot for Yellow River
    >Which was objectively the most stable?
    Egypt. Mesopotamia was a collection of city states, Yellow might've ended up as the Xia which would make them the 2nd most stable and we know jack about Indus river
    >Which was objectively the most influential?
    Mesopotamia, Egypt, China, and Indus. In that order
    >Finally, if you were to live in one, which would it be?
    China, mostly because their climate is objectively the best. I hate heat

        Yellow river is in temperate region comparable to Anatolia and Greece though. An improvement compared to Meso or Egypt

          Yellow River is Humid Continental, with Hot Summers and Dry Winters, with some Semi Arid Steppe. There's some Semi Arid Steppe in central Anatolia, but it's mostly Mediterranean Climate which is characterized by having it's Hot season by Dry and it's Winter season being Wet. Quite different from the North China Plain.

    I like how the creator of the map made sure to depict Taiwan as part of China even five thousand years ago.

    Nile on all counts due to its connection to the Mediterranean. Han, Tang and Song China might be brief exceptions, but this is debatable.

    >Which was objectively the most advanced?
    Prolly China, able to sustain the highest population and produces lots of extremely essential technologies.
    >Which was objectively the most kino?
    Egypt no question. Pyramids, mummies, bird gods, frogs, the list goes on...
    >Which was objectively the most stable?
    Probably Egypt again, since the Nile was so stable. Floods in China have killed like a gorillion people.
    >Which was objectively the most influential?
    China, because it still exists.

    >Which was objectively the most advanced?
    China. Chinese civilization existed until the Communist Revolution so it had to far more advanced techs than the others.

    >Which was objectively the most kino?
    Too subjective.

    >Which was objectively the most stable?
    Either Early Tang China or Old Kingdom Egypt. Mesopotamia and the IVC were just a bunch of (warring) city-states.

    >Which was objectively the most influential?
    Egypt. Writing, farming, architecture, medecine, astronomy, mathematics, kingship were all invented there.

    >Finally, if you were to live in one, which would it be?
    Egypt.
