    I mean this is mostly true for the majority of countries around the world. Many European countries like Spain or France have minority languages and cultures that they've been oppressive against. The Americas gained their land by invading and eradicating indigenous nations. Even smaller countries like Tonga could be considered an empire if we use this logic.

      France had like a dozen different languages and all of them were meat grindered for parisian french. One of the only languages that has a regulatory body for its use and evolution.
