Imperialism is a policy of expansion and territorial, cultural and economic domination of a dominant nation over other weaker ones.
The first examples of imperialism as policy of territorial expansion are Ancient Egypt (Hittite state), Macedonia, Greece and the Roman Empire. Later, in the Middle Ages, the Turks and Islam were great imperialist powers.
We can not fail to mention the European imperialism that demonstrated its strength by dominating many countries, especially in Africa and Asia.
