depends how you're pronouncing it.

reference, please? (that and that's not what Sharia is...as we've pointed out in Chat many times)

Cambrian or between the Edicarian and Cambrian. given that they're essentially immortal, that can be excused as "the rest got eaten" ps: what 'endemic symbiotes'?? the Disk Ants carry their young (which carry young which carry young ad infinitum),,,and other creatures carry organisms...

yes. I have. that's what we do when we test nukes on Pacific atolls and islands.

the Ainu are not shoved aside.

in what way? ruling multiple nations at once?

pick your yardstick and goalpost, and stick with them, please. the OP is talking about colonizing. it doesn't matter who lives somewhere; if others come and set up homes - even on empty land - it is colonizing. hey, you don't think the settling of the 4th largest island on Earth qualifies...

very true, but that means nobody can complain about Europeans colonizing the continent either.

my votes: the building of the railroads of the west coast -- and get more of the Chinatowns to become Mormon. Hawaii (or Alaska) turns Mormon.

early on, there were plans for a Jewish island between the US and Canada...late 1700s, early 1800s or so.

and then they went colonizing. (though if you're going to go with the "indigenous" line, you may want to try stopping the Malagasy from ever landing on Madagascar - they're Indonesians) Arabia is tectonically part of Africa.

would they even have such a term? (a Masai might not like being lumped with a BaAka(sp))

look at how much the Bantu peoples took over. if that's not colonization...

*nods* reduced to a single Ottoman, thanks to the Jannissaries.

then why did the would-be assassins plan to kill Lincoln, Johnson, and Seward? why not Lincoln, Johnson, and Foster? just wondering.
