> Proximity in time and space add important context to the issue. It really doesn't and saying otherwise doesn't add anything to the conversation (see what I did there). Do you really believe the Russian and German empires should reclaim their "rightful" territories in Europe? Do you believe Europe should reassert its domination over Africa because it had strong political control over it in recent history? What about the British Raj? What about Hong Kong? "Time and space" is a bullshit argument and you don't believe it yourself. How could you? "So and so" holding "such and such" lands at "this and that" time is the basis of 99% of wars throughout history. Its a stupid way to think. Its a stupid way to govern.
