In "Things Fall Apart" by Chinua Achebe, the British colonized Africa by converting lower class people and outcasts to Christianity, bought their own form of government ("But apart from the church, the white men had also brought a government.") and even imprisoned men of higher titles for acts that are illegal under British law "... Some of these  prisoners had thrown away their twins ..." The British were able to conquer some areas such as Abame, and in Umuofia they had turned the men against each other with their influence. As Obierika says to Okonkwo, "... Now he has won our brothers, and our clan can no longer act like one. He has put a knife on the things that held us together and we have fallen apart.”
