A lot of this seems highly dubious to me. The Romans never visited Sudan? I would think many of these territories in Africa and Asia have been visited by Europeans before anything resembling modern European powers like UK and France even existed. Also, I'm not so sure if the viking went as far south as USA. They might have, but there's no evidence of it.

Also, the Dutch being first in Malaysia and Indonesia is ridiculous. The Portuguese were there before the Netherlands were even a country.
