The "Scramble for Africa" had its roots in European <u>politics (Option 2).</u>

The Scramble for Africa was a result of European's competition for power over the African continent. Once European powers found out that the vast continent of Africa was full of raw materials (diamond, gold, nickel, uranium, and titanium, etc.), which could be exploited to fuel their industrial revolution, the claiming over their lands began. It unquestionably had its roots in European politics.

It officially started with the Berlin Conference (1884–5), which aimed to regulate European occupation, division, colonization and trade in Africa.

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

A supranational organization is a multinational union or association in which member countries cede authority and sovereignty on at least some internal matters to the group, whose decisions are binding on its members. In short, member states share in decision making on matters that will affect each country's citizens.

The EU, United Nations and the World Trade Organization (WTO) are all supranational groups, to one degree or another. In the EU, each member votes on policies that will affect each other member nation.

Such supranational organizations are seen by many as a better way to govern the affairs of nations, with an eye to preventing conflict and promoting cooperation, particularly on economic and military matters. Some critics, particularly those with nationalist tendencies, resent following internationally agreed rules and charge that adhering to the decisions of supranational organizations amounts to surrendering the sovereignty of member states and their people.

Korolek [52]

<span>In the 1920 the German economy collapsed as a result of B. Inflation. This inflation was so severe that it was referred to using the term hyperinflation. The cause of the hyperinflation was the massive war debt aquired by Germany as a result of the First World War. At the outset of the war Germany had removed its currency from the gold standard and borrowed heavily to finance its campaigns. The resulting debt meant that German currency was not backed by any real asset and so it lost purchasing power.</span>
