I'm making all the sense in the world. Are you saying that modern day people should accept the conquering of Nations? Like the example I gave. Spain is under economic woes. Should they attack Portugal and conquer them? Who would accept that? You'd have ever country arming themselves to the teeth which we are kind of witnessing with America's blatant attack on Iraq. Which the international community DID NOT recognize.
China took over Tibet and since Tibet doesn't have too many international allies? No one said anything.
Other then that? We have no such incidents happening in modern times, other then maybe the Falkland Islands?? I believe the Falkland Islands DO belong to Spanish Argentina! And the British should have no claim to the Island, but since the British had a claim for so long and the Inhabitants preferred to live under British rule? The international community, just let it slide, but the Island DOES belong to Argentina, and I believe they will eventually gain the land back!
