Colonization has most likely resulted in more genocide, human rights violations, and atrocities than any other ideology in history... What the U.N has to say about colonialism: U.N Doc. E/CN.4/1989/22, 8 February 1989, para. 40(b) at 10: “The concepts of ‘terra nullius, ‘conquest’ and ‘discovery’ as modes of territorial acquisition are repugnant, have no legal standing, and are entirely without merit or justification to substantiate any claim to jurisdiction or ownership of indigenous lands and ancestral domains, and the legacies of these concepts should be eradicated from modern legal systems.”
