Despite what happened centuries ago I think each country has developed on it's own since then and doesn't resemble European culture as it existed then or as it exists today. Making those ramifications a moot point.
Indigenous peoples around the world, including Native Americans in the US, are certainly still feeling the consequences of colonialism. Their ancestral lands are occupied and no longer theirs to control. Their peoples have often be pushed to the geographic margins. Standing Rock?

But since we're on the subject what about a modern day example? How do you feel about the US's relationship with Puerto Rico, American Samoa, and Guam? Should the US cut ties with those regions and let them develop independently?
The deserve self-determination. But do they want to be independent? In 2012, less than 6% of Puerto Ricans supported independence, while over 60% wanted statehood. If they wanted to be independent, I would support it. If they wanted to remain a territory, I would support that as well. It should be their choice (except statehood--that cannot be just their decision alone).
