What Wikipedia says

Forced assimilation is the involuntary cultural assimilation of religious or ethnic minority groups, during which they are forced by a government to adopt the language, national identity, norms, mores, customs, traditions, values, mindset, perceptions, way of life, and often the religion and ideology of an established and generally larger community belonging to a dominant culture.
