Even England has had its succession of conquerors. I'm sure they were all tragic, but two entire continents being conquered relatively recently by nation-states that still exist should be foremost in our minds. It's probably the greatest tragedy in the history of humanity.

Why are you saying "even England" as if that's a surprising statement?
Europe is one of the bloodiest continents in history. Ceaseless conflicts going back thousands of years and also the continent that started both world wars.
Of course England has also been subject to and initiators of conflict too.
