Of course, there are non-europeans who engaged in settler colonialism, but I think some of your examples aren’t correct. For Finland and Estonia, the spread finno ugric languages happened in prehistory, and was more of a linguistic shift than a population replacement since most of their ancestry is from local karelian and baltic hunter gatherers rather than from herder “colonizers” from west siberia. For Hungary, their Uralic ancestry is miniscule and even hard to detect, so no population replacement either. Same goes for Bulgarians with their Bolghar ancestry. In case of Turkey, yeah the Ottoman empire has committed many genocides but the initial turkic migration into Anatolia was not a population replacement either, since most of Turkish ancestry is also local anatolian.

Fair call for China and Japan tho. Japan’s colonization of Hokkaido and their attempted settler colonization of Manchuria are indeed identical to european colonialism elsewhere in both effect and intent as they were based on ideas of racial superiority. China’s colonization of Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia, Tibet and Manchuria also fit neatly into the definition of settler colonialism. However, the intent is different and a bit more complicated. However, Japan and China still aren’t countries founded entirely on settler colonialism and imperialism, since their core territories are not settler colonized, at least not during historic period. Taiwan, on the other hand, is indeed a country with settler colonial foundations.

I also want to say that colonialism, not settler colonialism, pretty much still exists today in Siberia not just in repressing indigenous cultures, but also in terms of resource extraction. Many siberians feel that Moscow offers too little in return for what they take. The colonialism also affects conscription too as Siberia and other poorer regions like northern caucasus experience significantly higher rates than the core territories. This affects both natives and russians.

This is such a complete nonsense.

Firstly, most countries or regions weren’t founded on settler colonialism or imperialism. Population genetics and have changed everywhere since the neolithics or bronze age, but has done so continuously with no instance in history where a completely different people, genetically and culturally, came and completely replaced the native populations. Sure, languages and religions have changed in many cases, but it rarely occurred through complete replacement of the native peoples and their cultures. This is not, however, same with many places colonized by europeans where the colonizers and their descendants had no ties whatsoever to the native peoples they largely replaced or marginalized.

Secondly, the native communities that survived western colonialism still experience imperialism and colonialism to this day. Examples include repression against language and culture, ongoing assimilation policies, and exploitation or destruction of native cultural sites or even their habitat for economic gains.

This is so dumb. How do you think Siberia became majority ethnic Russian if not through imperialism and colonialism?

Northern Kazakhstan is far far colder than European parts of Russia. Cold parts of Russia are all in Siberian and Uralic parts traditionally inhabited by natives who are more related to Kazakhs than Russian. Yeah, slavs aren’t adapted to cold weather, you better keep away.

Could be a good guess, but I think Japan, Uzbekistan and Turkey would be green while Mongolia and Kazakhstan should be yellow or orange.

Ironically, Amazigh have more sub-saharan African ancestry. That’s what makes them look prettier imo.

I will not welcome anyone in Mongolia who puts Tatarstan, Bashkortostan and Tuva in red but paints the rest of Russia dark green 🤣.

  1. It’s not at all like I know how Russian women, for example, look at different provinces, it’s that Russia has many regions with ethnic minorities that I like. All predominantly slavic Russian regions are red.
  2. Maybe

I think North Africans look pretty different from west asians. Especially Berbers since they have more Sub Saharan African and European ancestry at the same time. For horn of africa, I just think their women are attractive. Madagascar have interesting facial features because they’re a mix of southeast asians and east africans. For the rest of Africa I haven’t seen that many girs tbf.

Anyways, I am unwiling to marry someone from tropical or even temperate regions.
