Please explain how a monoethnic society secures itself from other possibly hostile monoethnic societies without trade?
Even in a prison, if the whites need material to build shivs to defend against the blacks, they are going to have to e.g. trade or ally with latinos.
Japan is monoethnic low natural resource nation but has the technological advancement of a superpower due to skilled trade of ideas and resources.
In the world you describe, Japan, an ally of Nazi Germany by the way, would have never risen to its current and former WW2 levels without trade.
Big brains still need materials to make groundbreaking inventions, and ideas to inspire them.
Unless I am missing something, it seems to me in your world that plunder/war needs to happen if peaceful trade is disallowed.
Wars starve of even more resources and they stunt growth.
Wars lead to many more own goals than advertised.
