See by that logic, the most brutally colonized places like the Americas and Australia have legitimate claims to the lands they occupy and don't have to give concessions to the natives. I know you're not trying to say that, but it's the conclusion of that argument.
Fun fact: Northern Ireland was purposely gerrymandered in such a way to have a Protestant British majority without being a tiny unviable microstate. The North is also referred to as the 6 counties, but there are 9 counties in the province of Ulster: 6 in Northern Ireland, 3 in the Republic. The borders were drawn by the British so that in the event of, say, a referendum on the reunification of Ireland, the British colonisers would outnumber the native Irish
