What were some forms of imperialism

History

Here are the four basic types of imperialism :)

The Colony:<span>  
</span>

<span>A territory or piece of land governed directly by a foreign power. The governing power may exercise direct rule through soldiers and officials, forcing the natives into submission, or the power may exercise indirect rule, administering the colony through the native aristocracy and westernizing the upper-class.
</span>


<span>Direct: 
</span>

<span>In a direct rule, a colony would be governed by foreign officials while no self-rule was given to natives. The goal was assimilation of the colony into an empire. Government institutions were based on European governments. The Belgian King Leopold II practiced the most brutal style of direct rule in the Belgian Congo. Almost 10,000,000 Congolese were killed in his entire rule. France also often practiced direct rule of her colonies. Vietnam, Algeria, Morocco, and Tunisia are notable examples.    
</span>


Indirect:<span>  
</span>

In an indirectly ruled colony, local government officials might be used, while the native upper-class was given limited self-rule over the colony. The goal was to Westernize future leaders of a colony in order to perpetuate a power’s control. This was accomplished in Raj India under the British East India Tea Company until the Sepoy Rebellion. After the rebellion was put down, the British Government assumed direct rule over the colony.


The Sphere-of-Influence:<span>   
</span>

<span>When a foreign power exercises control over another country’s trade and economy. China was divided into various spheres-of -influence by European powers so that they could obtain exclusive trade rights with Chinese ports. Often, Europeans would abuse trade with China because of Extraterritoriality rights granted to Europe.  
</span>


<span>Economic Imperialism:  
</span>

<span>As a relatively hidden form of rule, Economic Imperialism is practiced when a private company controls a less developed country. Early examples include the Dole Fruit Company controlling Hawaii before it became a state, the East India Tea Company’s control of Raj India, and The Congo Free State’s issuing of permits to businesses for exclusive rights to land and people. </span>

If hunter gatherers had a "better and healthier" lifestyle, why did people become agriculturalists?
White raven [17]
People had started growing plants and cattle-herding when they grow tired of moving from one place to another. Hunters and gatherers are nomads. They tend to move when they think that the resources are scarce in their location.They believed that if they could grow these foods instead, they would be able to feed their families and community.

7. Why is support for the Electoral College greater in small population states than it is in larger population states?
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

The smaller population states have more power by using the Electoral College than they would otherwise.

Explanation:

The Electoral College of the United States is made up of electors who elect the President and Vice President of the United States. The Constitution determines how many voters each state has; in practice, the number is the same as the total numebr of congressmen that each state has.  

Voters do not directly elect the President and Vice President of the United States, but vote through the constituencies of their own state. Voters can, in principle, vote for any candidate, but in practice undertake to vote for a particular candidate, and thus voters know how to cast their vote through their constituents for their own candidate. This is an example of an indirect election method.

The smaller popularion states tend to support the electoral college more emphatically than the larger population states, since this voting mechanism implies an equalization in the proportion of votes by the smaller states with respect to the larger states. Otherwise, if it were the case of direct vote by citizens, four or five states could be decisive, leaving other citizens on a secondary level.
