China/Russia/Europe are largely inhabited by people whose ancestry traces back 1000s of years to the same region. That’s very different from North America, where most natives where killed (either through disease or “policy”).

That’s not to excuse their past behaviour (Europeans started the genocide in North America), but it’s still very different.

Yup. That’s the biggest difference. My ancestors trace back to Beringia (what is now the Bering Strait) but my national leader is an 80 year old European American.

Except for the Han Chinese with the Uyghurs and the Tibetans and the Mongolians.

I suppose you could even add their own people for the Chinese and the Russians when they were starved during the communist times.
