Obviously you can change a people's culture. History is rife with examples. The Civil War here in the US sure changed Southern culture (slavery, etc). The English did a pretty good job of changing Irish culture and almost all the European colonial empires changed some other people's cultures. In fact, hmans throughout history have meshed, clashed, and adopted cultures for a varitey of reasosn. Some cultures changed more rapidly than others but the culture changed. Ask the Japanese what happened after Perry visited Tokyo bay.
