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:

Sunk-cost fallacy.

Explanation:

The sunk-cost fallacy refers to the behavior done by the individuals when they continue such behavior because they already invested resources on it (time, money, effort).

In this example, Les invested money on the megaphone of root beer, he starts drinking it but he becomes full, nevertheless he keeps drinking it (even when his friend tells him he will get sick) because he "bought it and not going to waste one drop of it"

Less continues drinking the root beer even though he's already full because he thinks he already invested money on buying it.

Thus, this is an example of the sunk-cost fallacy.
