Colonization was done so much that a significant amount of the world fell under colonization such that the British empire at some point, controlled 24% of the world as we know it today.
They justified it in part like the French Premier, Jules Ferry by saying that they were doing it to civilise the world and its so called 'inferior' races.
Many people consider the Alabama state constitution to have had a shameful start because of the position it took when it came to racial issues.
The opening of the constitution stated that its objective was to establish "white supremacy" in the state, within the limits of the federal constitution. It also defended the removal of voting rights of African Americans and poor whites. Therefore, it attempted to benefit only a few people, those with the most power and privilege in society.
I agree that this is a shameful start. Even though much of the hateful and racist parts of the constitution have been removed, the establishment of such laws most likely left a negative impact on the society of the state. It also halted the state's progress by affecting the public school system and the social mobility of many people.
