They'll have to do massive genocide and slaughter millions and millions of people across Europe for them to be remembered in such a manner.
They may indeed end up doing just that, and they may even "win", but we have nukes in Europe and if we're going down we're taking them with us, that's for sure.
The people of the global south have already been subject to coubtless genocides and imperialism from the US and Europe, though. Europe isn't the world, it's a fraction of humanity.
The US already did a massive genocide - 99%+ of the native population.
It also worked another population to death for decades - Chattel slavery
Another genocide was commited on the Philipines after ignoring their declaration of independence and invading - a third of the population was killed.
But you're right, as long as its not white people who are suffering first worlders don't care.
