Question

Identify european groups that came into conflict with the africans and the reasons for the conflict

Answer 1

Answer:

Europeans first became interested in Africa for trade route purposes.They were looking for ways to avoid the taxes of the Arab and Ottoman empires in Southwest Asia. Sailing around Africa was the obvious choice, but it was a long voyage and could not be completed without “pit stops” along the way. Europeans created ports in southern and eastern Africa so traders could restock supplies before crossing the Indian Ocean.
