Yup.  Just like the entire continent of Africa.

Like the Middle East.

Like India, yes.  Ever heard of Pakistan, Bangladesh,
and the Kashmir?

What's the difference?	The difference is that in the
USA, Australia, and Canada the natives were largely
eradicated and replaced by British.  It's colonization
on the Greek model, not colonialism.
