I don’t agree. I think the answer is more simple than that. If one only looks at the last three hundred years it is obvious that the Western Europeans, English, Spanish, Dutch, etc. are psychologically programmed to invade continents, take over the less developed communities by trickery and force, subjugate the populous and replace them in the land.
The English did this with impunity to the Americas, India, Africa, and Australia. If they did this in the last tree hundred years why not before that?
