8 0

The Germans were also furious about the various terms of the Treaty. They hated clause 231 – the ‘War Guilt’ clause – which stated that Germany had caused ‘all the loss and damage’ of the war. Firstly, the Germans did not think that they had caused the war (for the Germans, the war was a war of self-defence against Russia, which had mobilised 31 July 1914). During the 1920s, the Germans published all their secret documents from 1914, to prove they had tried to stop the war. Secondly, the Germans hated clause 231 because accepting it gave the Allies the moral right to punish Germany – it validated all the harsh terms of the Treaty.

How did economics help with European imperialism in Africa? <br> *in your own words please*

Stels [109]

Radical desire in Africa were supported by the extension of serious exchange Europe. The fundamental point was to get business and exchange joins with African social orders and shield those connections from other European contenders. Europe set up exchange relations with African rulers and urged them to exchange with them solely. European brokers were from the outset not keen on venturing into the inside of Africa. As long as African rulers assured them of a supply of slaves from the interior, they felt no need to expand into the interior. The rapid expansion of industries made European countries look to African for a supply of cheap raw materials and slave labour. West Africa was particularly important for the development of industries in Europe. The production of African palm oil used as industrial oil was in high demand for European industries.
