Explanation:
Following the defeat of Germany and Ottoman Turkey in World War I, their Asian and African possessions, which were judged not yet ready to govern themselves, were distributed among the victorious Allied powers under the authority of Article 22 of the Covenant of the League of Nations (itself an Allied creation). The mandate system was a compromise between the Allies’ wish to retain the former German and Turkish colonies and their pre-Armistice declaration (November 5, 1918) that annexation of territory was not their aim in the war. The mandates were divided into three groups on the basis of their location and their level of political and economic development and were then assigned to individual Allied victors (mandatory powers, or mandatories).
Class A mandates consisted of the former Turkish provinces of Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Palestine. These territories were considered sufficiently advanced that their provisional independence was recognized, though they were still subject to Allied administrative control until they were fully able to stand alone. Iraq and Palestine (including modern Jordan and Israel) were assigned to Great Britain, while Turkish-ruled Syria and Lebanon went to France. All Class A mandates reached full independence by 1949.
Correct answer is A. The War of Jenkin's Ear was mainly a conflict between British and Spanish forces in an imperialist context. They were fighting for domination of the seas and trade routes in the Caribbean. War broke out after spanish guards cut the ear of a British Captain called Jenkins, since they were already fighting for control of areas of the Caribbean they also started fighting about the border between British controlled Georgia and Spanish Florida.
The first picture can tell us how the slaves were tied to Europe in chains so to say. When the slaves were transported across the sea, they were often in chains and in poor conditions. It can also tell us how Africa was bound to America and Europe during the slave trade.
Another picture can tell us how Africa is being depleted of natural resources. You can see there is a lot of gold in America, this could be cotton, sugar etc .. which was sent back to Europe for gold and payments. It is gold in Europe because they got richer from this trade, the whole trade is based on eachother. Europe sends finished goods to africa and sells them, while they take slaves to America and puts them at plantations, and then get luxury goods back to Europa to sell them.
Colonialism was very popular because a mercantilist policy was pursued which meant that one should sell more than one bought. Therefore, colonies occupied so the european countries at a market to sell to. They needed luxury goods such as tobacco and sugar that were produced in America by the slaves. Getting these luxuary good was imporant for the trade in Europe.
