Idn't Spain have more colonies in Africa?
OK. During the era of exploration, the Portuguese were sailing around the coast of Africa and began their colonies in Mozambique, Angola, Guinea-Bissau, Cape Verde and Sao Tome y Principe. By the 1500's, Spain was preoccupied by explanding their empire in the Americas. Africa was then ignored for centuries before the introduction of quamine, which allowed Europeans to travel inland in Africa without dropping like flies from malaria. Hence, in the 1870's the scramble for Africa began! The British and French, the two largest Western powers of the day, took the most land in Africa. Germany too took colonies...Cameroon, Tanzania, Togo and Namibia were German colonies before WWI. Even Belgium took the Congo (they actually began the Scramble for Africa after circumnaviagting the Congo River). After WWI, they would also take Rwanda and Burundi from the Germans.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Do we have it all wrong about "civilization" being desirable versus "barbarian" society that often resides in the hills being regarded as "uncivilized"?
No. What happens is that in modern times, we find people in societies that behave in the most stranges ways. We can think that people that live in modern societies have a certain degree of formal education, behave themselves according to social patterns and traditions that are expected by other members of society, and show respect and tolerance to other people that think and act differently.
However, as we see it on the news, barbaric conducts are common in modern societies. Even worse than the barbaric behaviors we could expect to see from "uncivilized" people. They have to survive in the wild, that is why they seem to act "uncivilized." But educated or modern people, well, they are supposed to be the educated ones. And many times we are not seeing that by the way they act or react to confront daily situations.
Major threats to pioneer life and limb came from accidents, exhaustion, and disease. Crossing rivers were probably the most dangerous thing pioneers did. Swollen rivers could tip over and drown both people and oxen. Such accidents could cause the loss of life and most or all of valuable supplies.
