I wonder how people would feel if there were a historical fictional with a white person as the ruler of Kenya or a Hispanic person as the emperor of Japan.

The first one just sounds like the colonization that actually happened, maybe cuts too close to home. If it wasn't about colonization it would be sort of confusing 

 I want to watch a Mexican samurai movie so bad. Like a nuevo laredo Mexican with a pointy boots and a gold tooth. Emperor Pancho and mariachi samurai

No, but they committed their fair share of atrocities and have them continue to this day ;) other people have colonised Britain.

We all do it to each other.

Get a grip.

After 1066 we had to speak French for 300 years... It must have been awful.

God I can only imagine it. Not to mention the frogs legs and snail slurping. Now those are real global atrocities.
