The correct answer is C) Desire for new markets.
This desire for new markets resulted in the "Scramble for Africa." This term refers to the constant competition among European countries for colonial possessions in Africa. It got to the point where the competition was at such a high level, that European countries met to lay down some ground rules. This was known as the Berlin Conference (1884-1885). After this, colonization of these African territories continued to rise, as industrialization in Europe resulted in the desire to expand the markets where individuals could trade and sell their goods.
