  1.  @surajitmondal823  - it really depends on what the fundamentals are that the group[s] conserve. If they conserve fundamental Modern/Western Values, then all is good in the world. If the conserve Social Darwinistic values, that drove Europe into WW2, there is a serious issue that may bite others, especially minorities. If they conserve non-Western values (ie slaving because they are of the wrong ethnicity or religion, like was done in the Balkans of Europe, Caucuses of Asia, or coasts of Africa, for over 1300 years), that is serious problem that may bite The West (that problem did not start getting thrown off until invading slavers were kicked out of the Western European continent 1492, it took several hundred years for Western Europeans to figure out that slaving was bad for them to do as was done to them, and slaving did not completely get thrown off the world until WW1 brought legalized slavery all to an end.) The Communists still commit genocide by ethnicity in countries like China, as they did in Soviet times (ie Holodomor of Ukraine, Famine of Ethiopia, etc.)… Communists still slave, through work camps & concentration camps like former Soviets & North Korea & Cuba, sending laborers & military & doctors to kill & help others in exchange for hard currency to their sponsoring socialist government (while keeping family home so they don’t flee) like North Korea & Cuba & China. That was not long ago for some of these, and fairly isolated to only a few nations today. This has been a painful process to get here, and now we can talk to people around the world, instantaneously! 😀 Fundamentals are an important thing to conserve, when it is the bedrock of Western/Modern Civilization. It took us a long time to get here, with a lot of stumbling along the way. We live in a special time, never similarly experienced before in the history of the world. The fundamentals for where we are must not be lost.

  2. Sometimes, education convinces & empowers indigenous groups to refuse integration It is better to facilitate self governance in a federated way, and extend benefit to voluntary affiliation All peoples of a society need benefit, not just educated/indoctrinated/brainwashed/bribed

  3. To think indigenous cultures were without problems before the introduction of the European indigenous peoples is a fantasy. Before the introduction of European indigenous, there were other more local indigenous peoples who subjugated the more immediate indigenous. Government structures must be fair in a region, for all peoples, regardless of origin. Once that is done, where the local federated group can have a say in the integration of extra-indigenous peoples, life is good.
