... As to....we naturally (in the western world).... then that wasn't always the case and possibly you haven't quite adapted to it.
Wait, is that a cheap shot at my national origin? Are you trying to suggest that i do not (fully) belong to the western world?
For you information, "western world" in this context (i.e., reading from left to right) includes most of the world, excluding some Far East and Middle East areas. In that sense, Eastern Europe
is a part of the western world.
