History through tinted glasses & Interesting series, but again with a pinch of salt as it is quite one-sided & tainted by the narrator's bias.
The harsh reality is, empires were built upon exploitation, expansion during the exploration of resources.
Another issue is the fact that one considers the views of those who are "still offended" by actions hundreds of years ago weighed up against the fact that they now live in countries with better quality of life, HDI & opportunities...
