I don't think the conquest of native Americans by Europeans should be treated any differently than any other conquest. CMV

I think that the conquest of North America by Europeans was the course of nature, and that the destruction of the Native Americans shouldn't be looked at as such a black mark on history. All of human history is littered with nations and cultures fighting and displacing each other for land and territory. Up until Europeans settled Europe it had not been a big problem to anyone that almost every culture on the planet did this. It is such a major issue that Europeans conquered North America that the U.N. has requested the U.S. return "sacred lands" to the Native American groups that originally occupied them. This makes no sense to me, because in a historical context European powers won that territory fair and square. Whether the Natives were tricked, or pushed out with violence they didn't have the resources to maintain their claim, so it's no longer theirs. For the time period Native Americans were a severely underdeveloped group of cultures on the world stage The conquest of North America is no different than any other large scale conquest in history. 
   
  It's just like the Russians invading Siberia and annexing the territory of the native inhabitants in the 16th century, the invasion of most of the western and Asiatic world by the Greeks, Romans, and Persians in the bronze and iron ages, the conquests of the Mongolian Empire, or the expansion of Islam. None of these conquests "stole" land it wasn't subtle like "stolen" implies, it was taken by conquest.

No one is looking for reparations for the displaced peoples of those conflicts, or fighting for it on the international stage. Native American culture was mostly nomadic and had only basic technology. It's no wonder to me that they couldn't fight off the Europeans, and in the larger context of history it was the natural way things were going to unfold. 

Had any other advanced culture such as the Arabs, or Asian cultures, come to the Americas first I can't see things turning out much differently for the Native Americans. It just seems to me like the natural progression took its course, and the underdeveloped native cultures couldn't survive. Survival of the fittest still applies on a large scale when looking at cultures, nations and societies, and it makes sense that that is what happened with the settlement of North America.

All in all I don't see it as a bad thing, but probably more of a neutral event. It wasn't morally wrong, it was just the way human events happen.

So today if America invaded Africa and began a war of conquest in the Congo or throughout Nigeria or anywhere else that would be totally fine? It would be survival of the fittest. We *could* do it. But why does that make it ok?

I think you're entirely missing the point that the European conquest of North America was horrific for the native populations. Why did they deserve to die? Because they were less advanced? That's not to say it was the worst event in human history, however. 

All of the conquests you mentioned were black marks as well. They get glossed over, but the human rights (which didn't really exist then except for in-groups) violations that occurred in each of them are blood-curdling. Perhaps a reason why this one sticks out to you is because unlike the Greeks, Romans, Monghols, etc. America still exists and is populated by the same Europeans that conquered this continent.
