    Similarly, I love when Europeans complain about the Americas having no distinct culture or ancient structures when they kinda killed and burned the ones that existed here for thousands of years.

      WTF are you talking about? The Europeans that “killed and burned” the natives mostly stayed, they call themselves Americans now. Look at a map of America at the time of the revolution, and you’ll see there was a lot of killing and displacing natives after the USA’s independence. Don’t blame this on modern day Europeans, blame this on your ancestors (assuming you’re american).
