The Berlin Conference of 1885 is said to have set off a “scramble for Africa.” That means that Europeans rushed to set up colonies in Africa.
Answer: Option A
<u>Explanation:
</u>
The European trade and the colonial rule in Africa was regulated by the Berlin Conference of 1885. And, it is also the final point for the conquest or occupation of African territory by the powers of Europe for economic and political reasons.
With the beginning of 20th century the occupation over African Continent was at its zenith and by 1914, 90% of the region was occupied by the European powers. This was also named as New Imperialism by many historians.
The Berlin Conference of 1884 - 85 was a meeting held in Berlin between European Nations to create rules on how to peacefully divide Africa among them for colonization. It was unfair to the Africans in the following ways:
1. There was no consent from the Africans, and they were not consulted in any way.
2. It banned the slave trade in name only. Slavery was rife particularly in Belgian controlled Congo.
3. European powers ended up exploiting the African colonies economically, in the name of civilizing them, and let go often only after armed freedom struggles by the Africans.
