Idn't Spain have more colonies in Africa?
OK. During the era of exploration, the Portuguese were sailing around the coast of Africa and began their colonies in Mozambique, Angola, Guinea-Bissau, Cape Verde and Sao Tome y Principe. By the 1500's, Spain was preoccupied by explanding their empire in the Americas. Africa was then ignored for centuries before the introduction of quamine, which allowed Europeans to travel inland in Africa without dropping like flies from malaria. Hence, in the 1870's the scramble for Africa began! The British and French, the two largest Western powers of the day, took the most land in Africa. Germany too took colonies...Cameroon, Tanzania, Togo and Namibia were German colonies before WWI. Even Belgium took the Congo (they actually began the Scramble for Africa after circumnaviagting the Congo River). After WWI, they would also take Rwanda and Burundi from the Germans.

Answer:

New friends can introduce you to more new friends and help you make connections.

ioda

Answer:

D. Less time spent making a decision

Explanation:

When in a group, people take more time to discuss than one person, so more time is spent making a decision.

The other options are false because a) better understanding of the decision rationale will be provided because at least one person in the group will understand it b) a greater pool of knowledge will be available in a group and c) more visible role modeling will only occur in groups (individual decision making mostly doesn't have role modeling).
