Explanation:
<span>The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is an on-going struggle that
began in the mid-20th century. There has been a long-term peace process and
reconciliation between Israel, Egypt, and Jordan but the agreement has not
reached a final decision yet. <span>
<span>Conflicts
are due to borders, security,
water rights, mutual recognition, control of Jerusalem, Palestinian freedom of
movement, settlements in Israel, and Palestinians' right to return. With which
violence is almost always involved and is the center of numerous international
conferences that tackle human rights violations. </span></span></span>
I am going to assume here you are referring to the 'Scramble of Africa' that happened in the second half of the 19th century, as the European power did not really control the African regions before then.
The methods contexts did differ per colonising power and colonised region, but it boils down to the following factors:
- superior firepower, equipment and recourses; having better guns, armour, communication technology, and supply routes, made the Europeans a formidable enemy that the various tribes simply could not counter.
- co-opting the local elites; a tried and tested method for centuries, this has always been the way smart conquerers could maintain control over a region with minimal fuss and expenditur.
<span>- divide and conquer; conflict between the many tribes of Africa has been a constant for centuries in the continent. The Europeans could easily manipulate the various tribes against each other to prevent a unified resistance from rising up. </span>
<span>- a willingness to use extreme forms of terror; the Europeans might have been all high and mighty back home about their Enlightment and democracy, but in Africa they were more than willing to use forms of terror that would make most contemporary dictators feel a little uneasy. Case in point, the widespread killing and mutilation when quotas were not met in king Leopold II's Congo.</span>
The best answer is "was not part of the Eastern Bloc",
although this answer is misleading.
Yugoslavia was indeed part of the Eastern Bloc in the sense that it was an Eastern European communist country, but it was the only one that did not align itself with the USSR after 1948. It also did no ally with the United States, choosing non-alignment instead.
This answer is the best answer simply because it is less false than the other answers, which are completely wrong. Yugoslavia never joined the USSR, choosing to split from Stalin in 1948, and never became a satellite nation of the US, and isn't located anywhere near the Baltic.
