What led to the scramble for Africa?

History
1 answer:
monitta2 years ago
5 0

Based on my knowledge, the scramble for Africa was largely because the industrial revolution was springing up all over the world in largely European countries and they were at a point where resources were running out. Gold and other valuable metals were discovered in Africa as well as timber. The surplus of resources in Africa made it very valuable to these industrial countries so they all made a huge "scramble" to Africa. Also, the idea of merchantilism, the idea that the amount of land a country owned defined its wealth, was still very popular so these countries wanted to make a huge land grab.

lora16 [44]
I’m sure some of us have siblings either half,step,or biological. Many of us without knowing influence our sibilings by the simplistic ways without even realizing it, it can be just talking in a positive way with you parents without having a temper or anything. Challenges you can face with your siblings and parents is pretty hard sometimes for example you guys don’t agree on a certain plan, a way you can solve this is by letting each persons idea come together as one big idea. Leadership is hard for some and for some they are born with it, however almost all of us have it in us one way or another.
Hope this helped, lmk if you need anything else!!
