You cannot blame representative government for imperialism, that happened under the absolute monarchs more than any.
Imperialism is not a thing of the west either, all cultures have had these problems. If able a group will eventually subjugate others.
Look at mongals, mughals, islamists, ottomans, russia, imperial china, etc. All imperialist as far as they could as autocracies.
