No, as much as I love traveling to Europe they are the ones who ruined countires like China, India and all the countries in Africa. They were the richest countries but then Europe stole everything they had and then there were the slaves.

China basically avoided being colonised and India stands as one of the few examples of a country to come out of being colonized with a population largely of native people and do alright. In most of the other previous colonies that are now doing well the native people were made a minority through war or disease.

India has native people? I am half sikh and half christian I don't know much about India, never went there either but I don't think it has native people. We in Canada call them first nations or aboriginals and they are not really Indians. Columbus mistaked the native people for Indians that's all I know.
