I'll step out in front of the bus here:
Why is Euro-centrism and colonialism automaticaly assumed to be a bad thing? It was a phase of our (europeans and decendants) cultural growth. Was Mongol expansionism a bad thing? What about Apache raiding on nieghboring tribes? Surely the domination of the Oyo empire was a travesty, and I think we can all condemn in the strongest possible terms the ecological policies of the Maoi while we are at it.
