"Since the whole thing is a direct result of British Colonialism"

Is that, like, illegally invading someone else's country so that you can grab whatever land, or vegetable or mineral wealth they have, and thereby enrich your own leaders, your leader's mates, big businesses and big-business-people, all the time claiming that you're bringing democracy and civilisation whilst at the same time subjugating and terrorising the indigenous population?

Rings a bell - which nation does that currently sound like?
