<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

  • A. The Belgians tried to impose their civilization on the Africans.
  • C. Africans paid taxes by collecting rubber for the Belgian king’s company.
  • E. Eight to ten million Africans died from mistreatment during King Leopold’s reign.

<em><u>Explanation:</u></em>

Belgian Congo, French Congo Belge, previous province (coextensive with the present-day Democratic Republic of the Congo) in Africa, led by Belgium from 1908 until 1960. It was set up by the Belgian parliament to supplant the past, exclusive Congo Free State, after worldwide shock over maltreatment there brought weight for supervision and responsibility. The official Belgian frame of mind was paternalism: Africans were to be thought about and prepared as though they were kids.

There was no role for them in legislation, yet conventional rulers were utilized as operators to gather charges and select work; uncooperative rulers were ousted. In the late 1950s, when France and the United Kingdom worked with their provinces to get ready for autonomy, Belgium still depicted the Congo as an unspoiled place where there are parent-youngster connections among Europeans and Africans.

Which groups did not share in the prosperity of the late 1800s?
Elan Coil [88]
Child laborers and Miners did not get to share the prosperity. child laborers were more times than not, sold to the shop or industry because, their families needed money. and the Miners didn't reap the money of the late 1800's because most of them were in dire need for money and would take any wage, or they had just gotten here from a foreign country and didn't have anywhere else to work.
