I'm explicitly trying to draw a parallel between other colonial states and China. This isn't absolving other colonial states in any way. The colony-empire relationship is a just a node along the gradient of territory and domination.

It's similar to Kashmir under India, Palestine under Israel, and East Timor under Indonesia.
