Cách sử dụng
The word "colonize" means to establish control over a territory and settle people from the colonizing country in that territory. This often refers to the historical process where countries from Europe traveled to different parts of the world and established colonies by claiming the land and forcefully removing the local people. Today, the term can be used to describe the process of settling or occupying an area or territory. However, it is important to approach this word with sensitivity and understand the negative impact colonization has had on many nations and peoples.
