Is it fair to claim that powers like Britain, France, and Belgium got a raw deal during imperialism?

History

goblinko [34]3 years ago
8 0

The statement is TRUE.

Old imperialism was characterized by direct occupation and dominance of a territory, and started with the arrival of the Spanish to America leaded by Columbus in 1492. Colonized territories depended on their mother country for political, economic, social and cultural issues. Apart from Spain, also other countries such as France, UK or Belgium created their own empires.

The relationships established with the colonist were mostly profitable for the mother country, specially in economic terms. Such system allowed the mother country to consume raw materials, minerals and other resources from the colonies only paying for the costs of their obtention or extraction, and to use them to produce manufactures. Subsequently, they traded the final products in the international markets, becoming powerful exporting nations. They even sold those final products back in the colonies.

Tell me about the 3rd punic war
Semenov [28]

Answer:

In 149 B.C., after Carthage technically broke its treaty with Rome by declaring war against the neighboring state of Numidia, the Romans sent an army to North Africa, beginning the Third Punic War.The Third Punic War ended in victory for the Romans and defeat for the Carthaginians. Throughout the siege, Hasdrubal attempted to negotiate with the Romans.The destruction of Carthage was an act of Roman aggression prompted as much by motives of revenge for earlier wars as by greed for the rich farming lands around the city. The Carthaginian defeat was total and absolute, instilling fear and horror into Rome's enemies and allies.The immediate cause of the war was the issue of control of the independent Sicilian city state of Messana (modern Messina). In 264 BC Carthage and Rome went to war, starting the First Punic War.

One major event that occurred in the Third Punic War was that "Roman captured and defeated of Carthage," since this ultimately led to the Carthage Empire in the Mediterranean.

creativ13 [48]
<span>Merchants in the middle ages were business people who participated in retail and trade. The term “merchant” comes from the Latin term “mercer” which means trafficking and from the French term “mercies” which means wares. Thus, the medieval merchant was seen as both a trader and trafficker of wares across countries. The middle ages merchant sourced for his products during his travels and would then sell them in markets and shops or at fairs. </span>

Brilliant_brown [7]

Incomplete question. However, I inferred from a historical perspective.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Thomas Gage (General Thomas Gage) was is a famous British general that controlled a large portion of British soldiers in North America during the British colonial era.

His statement likely came at a time when there was large opposition coming from Boston over perceived injustices from the government. Hence, his statement meant they (those in power) were losing or not in control over Boston.
