What is Imperialism some might ask?The policy of extending the rule or authority of an empire or nation over foreign countries, or of acquiring and holding colonies and dependencies.A good definition but what does is really mean? My personal definition is a group of countries decide to take over other ones. The reasons they do this is for benefits. Benefits such as political reasons, nationalism for more power by ruling more countries. Religion to spread there own religion to other people. To use other countries resources, cheap workers, goods, etc. economical reasons. Also because some people think that a certain race is better than the others. Lastly for exploring new lands. __Imperialism in__ __Africa__ In 1875 Europe had control in only small places in Africa. ======
