    TF you mean ‘assimilated’

    If I lease you a part of my house (AT GUNPOINT NO LESS) for 10 years am I doing an imperial aggression when I move my stuff back in afterwards?

        I’m strongly of the belief, by reading them in the context provided, that you don’t know what any of those words mean

          Imperialism - building an empire by exerting control over foreign powers

          de jure - by law

          cassus belli - cause for war

          So conquering other places is okay when the law says you have a good reason to send soldiers marching down their streets?
