: That definitely depends on your perspective of empire and self rule. United

: future peace.

That kind of plays into the theme of Europe and America going off and colonizing the rest of the world under the pretense of "civilizing" indigenous people with their own modern systems and customs. Yes, did bring a lot of modern advancements to comparatively underdeveloped nations. I'm sure they could appreciate it if the colonizers hadn't forced the indigenous people or settlers to build and maintain this infrastructure and industry with little to no compensation for their labor. Housing, sustenance, healthcare, and other essential services are held hostage or plainly just don't exist because capitalists want to get the maximum profits out of a colony.

If the people find that they've had enough of this, and they always will, the colonizers will deploy thousands of colonial troops overseas to intimidate and suppress the local populace.
