You know the British invented the concentration camp in Africa, right?
We're told a relatively benign version of our history. You kinda have to travel to the countries involved to get the real version.

"whatever happens we have the maxim gun"
Well if we take India as an example we have the Bengal famine.
You just put Russia and Japan as "Eastern"; they have nothing to do with each (and I would consider both as more Western than Eastern regarding imperial/colonial matters) other nor with China. China is a massive country that has always been massive and rich. Their style is more like the tribute systems they had before, as it is being observed in the BRI and other projects.
