The reason we call the Americas the Western world is due to them originating during a European-centralized time. Europe is very obviously East of the Americas, so we called it and still call it the Western Hemisphere Technically, China is closer to the East side of the US than the West, so if we were to focus our maps around the US or Western Asia(where China is), it would seem like the West. He is right, in that regard.
