Is it fair for Europe to colonize north america, Australia, canada, New Zealand and dumping what's produced there on other countries?


Is it fair to put an entire continent in a position where it does not belong? If I recall correctly Australia and New Zealand were mostly colonized by the British Empire, not by "Europe", Canada by UK and France, US by Western Europe, etc. Europe is a continent, not a country, and Europe did not colonize anything, some countries did.


Europe did not colonize the world - some European countries did. I come from Poland, a country that never colonized another country, so I do not need that moral lecturing.

It is not even a matter of fairness, but of defending one owns interests.
