You mean before the genocide? It's a pretty good guess.

No tribes totally wiping another out before then? History is not that kind. I doubt it was a utopic land before someone else arrived.

there were wars yes. "totally wiping another out" tho? that was a european import.

even if it was the case that First Nations were genociding each other (which again, itโ€™s not), that still doesnโ€™t justify european colonialism in any way.

Are you sure about that? Killing off an entire tribe, enslaving the women, not a new concept in the slightest.
