By "advanced," you are referring to technology. I don't think our improved technology has benefitted the world much, including almost all the species who have to put up with us.

Entirely subjective. If we take humanity as simply another facet of the universe, then really, it's all relative.

But talking exclusively in political paradigms and the evolution of a fluid societal structure, capitalism is the best we've had and got to this date. After all, without 'technology', I'd be dead.
