Seven million Mexicans today fluently speak an indigenous language, significantly more than in the United States. And you’re kidding yourself if you think the United States hasn’t also gotten a lot of money and power out of maintaining friendly regimes in Europe and East Asia.

Yes, they were apparently not succesful. But as late as in the 20. century christian schools in south america largely forbid the use of native language.
