Natives

There has been much discussion of Native cultures (Polynesian, Aboriginal, Native Americans, et al) and how they were somehow more special because they arrived before Europeans, yet all emigrated from somewhere else.
What is so special about being the first?
What is so special about not being strong enough to hold on to your lands?

About the land, I saw no benefit in killing over it, it is sacred, and a gift to my yellow friends.

Iron Eyes Cody (born Espera Oscar de Corti April 3, 1904 – January 4, 1999) was an American actor born in Louisiana. Going by the name of Iron Eyes Cody, he portrayed Native Americans in Hollywood films.[1] In 1996, his 100 percent Italian ancestry was confirmed by his half-sister.[2]

Water rights are largely based on seniority. Of course, you won't have to worry about water in Las Vegas for at least a few months.

All I know is what Joseph Conrad noted in Heart of Darkness:
Quote:
The conquest of the earth, which mostly means the taking it away from those who have a different complexion or slightly flatter noses than ourselves, is not a pretty thing when you look into it too much.

I think if a group of people live in an environment long enough they develop what seem like amazing/special skills. IMO they have filled out a niche in the ecosystem which allows them to maintain an equilibrium with their environment.
Interesting yes, special, no. They're just some people like everyone else.

IMO evolution isn't the strongest strongest survive, it's the species which make them selves irreplaceable to the ecosystem which survive.
