5 things about the scramble for africa
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

The Scramble for Africa, also called the Partition of Africa or the Conquest of Africa, was <u>the invasion, occupation, division, and colonisation of African territory by European powers during a short period known to historians as the New Imperialism</u> (between 1881 and 1914). In 1870, <u>only 10 percent of Africa was under formal European control</u>; by 1914 <em>this had increased to almost 90 percent of the continent</em>, with only Ethiopia (Abyssinia), the Dervish state (a portion of present-day Somalia) and Liberia remaining independent. <u>The European colonialists had several motives</u>:<em> a desire for valuable natural resources, the quest for national prestige, rivalry between European powers, and religious missionary zeal</em>. Internal African native politics also played a role.

Explanation:

The scramble for Africa <u>represents the most thorough and systematic process of colonialism in world history</u>.  

~ The European colonial powers managed to conquer and control almost the entire continent of Africa in a short, twenty-five year period from about 1875 to 1900.  

~ Some of the European states involved were already well-established global powers; the others were up and coming nations that desired to emulate and compete with the dominant imperial states.
