The quantity of natural resources in Africa led European nations to colonize Africa.
Answer: Option 3
<u>Explanation:</u>
Africa is well known for its natural resources. African countries’ soil was rich in minerals. Also, some of the African Countries are abundant with Oil resources.
The Europeans Colonized Africa as they can trade that wide variety of mineral resources and all the organic products. That includes Diamonds to rocks that contained uranium, zinc, tungsten, etc.. Also, tea, coffee, sugar, and tobacco were 90% percent of the exports from Africa.
We can immediately reject option D - while Spanish is an Indo-European language, Quechua is an indigenous language of the Americas.
The Spanish conquerors did not care much about the indigenous population - except if they could covert them, which would make them be seen as defenders of the Christian faith and win them favours with the Pope.
So they would not teach the indigenous population in secular schools, they would however, try to teach them religion. The correct answer is A - The Catholic clergy believed that Christianity would be adopted faster if translated into an indigenous language.
