Why do you feel Ionia was the birthplace of western philosophy and science?

Well it may be the birthplace of western philosophy and science but Turkiye does not have good social and political relations with the West. Actually, I don’t really know what really is the West. Ionia, Egypt, Canaan, Mesopotamia, and so on all have other descendants.

I knew about science starting with philosophy. However, If Thales was the first philosopher, yet his philosophy was the first science, wasn't it just as much a science as a philosophy and as such isn't it correct to say that the origin of both disciplines co-occurred, rather than philosophy being the origin of science?

very good...but it omits the significant influence of the Mesopotamians/Sumerians and the Indus Valley civilizations on Greek philosophy, astronomy and democracy.

I have been reading a book by Bertrand Russel about the history of Western philosophy, and although I haven't finished the book, I have read the chapter about the rise of ancient Greek civilization, and I can say Russell had some exciting explanations about why Greece we know today is not the place ancient Greeks ascended to civilization. Mainland Greece was mountainous and not a good place for agriculture. But there were also valleys covered with mountains and rivers crossing within the valleys, so agriculture was possible, but not for every Greek community. Some Greek communities had to migrate into Asia minor, southern Italy and Sicily to form colonies which grew into trade hubs instead of agricultural centers. Most trader settlements throughout history had more free environments than agrarian communities; also, because of trade, these settlements were way wealthier than mainland Greeks, who focused on agriculture instead. Trading also causes non-stop human traffic to come in and out, bringing goods together with knowledge of other cultures. Therefore, we must remember that Ionians had active connections with Egyptian and Mesopotamian civilizations and their wisdom because of trade. These factors are why Ionia flourished way before the mainland Greeks
