Where in the world do you live that conquering wasn't the way to gain control of the lands?

A couple years ago I did a high level CocaineQuest and went all the way to Medellin, Colombia. What struck me even more than the fishscale flake was the skill with which the Spanish totally eradicated the native population. They don't have any of the problems there that we do with our sketchy Native American relations. They just killed them ALL. No inbreeding to note. No small groups left. Just all dead and now its populated by Spaniards and exile Jews.
The Spanish were a lot better at this sort of thing, imo. It's super evil of course, but impressive in its efficacy.
