With this replacement migration, can a nation continue with another people?
"The ship of Theseus, also known as Theseus's paradox, is a thought experiment that raises the question of whether an object that has had all of its components replaced remains fundamentally the same object. The paradox is most notably recorded by Plutarch in Life of Theseus from the late first century. Plutarch asked whether a ship that had been restored by replacing every single wooden part remained the same ship.
The paradox had been discussed by other ancient philosophers such as Heraclitus and Plato prior to Plutarch's writings,[1] and more recently by Thomas Hobbes and John Locke. Several variants are known, including the grandfather's axe, which has had both head and handle replaced."

No
The western civilisation as we know it has been replaced by global civilisation, its not merely about race, but even general stuff like culture, beliefs, music, arts, architecture, etc. represent clear intent to break all ties with the past

if the idea of a nation will catch on a new body of people inhabiting the land will wewuz it appropriating it as if it's own
to catch on it has to propagate certain qualities like nostalgia for "good old times", a simple and attractive image for both gender roles so that young people willingly carry the spook of "nation" forward through the ages bolstering it's popularity and adding to it growing it.

Italians will always be greasy, so at least that stays the same
Western civilization is an idea, not a tangible thing. So, I think Western civilization will continue into the foreseeable future. You can't kill an idea. A secular, democratic and tolerant ideal of Western progressive will live on. A flood of refugees can't bring that down easily. They will always be a minority. The patience Western nations have shown with the atrocities of Muslim migrants in their countries is amazing. I hate Islam (as an Atheist), but I have to admire the tolerance of Western nations who hold a belief in equality and right to worship above the deaths of a few score of compatriots. It really is an example of Western ideals being strong and sturdy

The fact that you think these represent the essence of western civilisation really prove how dead the west is

This is the Western world post French Revolution. Yes, it's what Western civilization is all about.

Nice digits
Modern Western civilization is embracing these ideals. If you don't like it; move to Russia or China.

No western people, no western civilization.

Western Civilization is nowhere near dead. In fact, I would argue, with the advancements we've made in technology, it's flourishing and "pulling away from the pack" so to speak. That, I believe, is actually the problem and why we find ourselves in such a clash between two or three or four ideals right now. The West has become so much more advanced, so much more developed, and so much further down the road, the others are starting to lash out and it's caused this aggressive push because they don't know anything else to do. Have you ever watched a little kid try to keep up with a bigger kid or an adult in something physical? Some are okay, but some get so upset and they can't understand yet why their bodies are just different at the moment. They may grow up and be faster or bigger, and they may not, but they're just different and they don't understand. That's kind of how I see it right now.
