Lilliput and Europe...not as different.

I think this story is a little fake, and this sound extremely dumb when you're talking about a story concerning 6-inch tall people who live in an island on the south atlantic, but the culture of the Lilliputans is almost exactly the same as the Europeans' culturfe even though they haven't ever had contact with any other civilization except for maybe the mentioned island of Blefuscu, so basically the only thing that differs between Gulliver and the Lilliputans is their height and their language, because they use European-style clothes, as described in the text, as well as horses to carry their carriages, (tiny horses, but horses ), even though horses come from Europe. The king's ruling system also seems to resemble Europe's monarchies, especially Great Britain's, since they have one of the oldest monarchies in the world. So, it's almost impossible to develop an almost identical culture without having had contact with it ever. This may be a message from the author saying that perhaps we don't defer as much as we think we do, but I don't think so. I think the author's just under great influence from Great Britain's culture, so he's incapable of imagining a different culture, or he's trying to tell us something or mock something, but I can't find what it is.
