Explain the berlin conference
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

Look below

Explanation:

The Berlin Conference is a rather controversial time in the imperialist era of the late 19th and 20th centuries. It was a meeting of the most influential European countries to split up the African continent based on the desires of the colonizers. This resulted in major problems that have lasted till this day due to these colonies and eventual countries being created with no regard to the existing cultural divides present in Africa already. As a result, the Berlin conference caused the fracturing of tribes and forced the union of enemies. Overall, the conference benefited the European colonies at the expense of the African people.

I hope this helps.

List and explain 2 reasons why American cities grew in the late 1800s. Describe 2
Roman55 [17]

Answer:Between 1880 and 1900, cities in the United States grew at a dramatic rate. Owing most of their population growth to the expansion of industry, U.S. cities grew by about 15 million people in the two decades before 1900. Many of those who helped account for the population growth of cities were immigrants arriving from around the world. A steady stream of people from rural America also migrated to the cities during this period. Between 1880 and 1890, almost 40 percent of the townships in the United States lost population because of migration.
