Scramble for Africa During the late 19th century, several European countries wanted more overseas land. These countries were Great Britain, France, Portugal, Spain, Denmark, Germany, Italy, and the Netherlands.

The result was a “Scramble for Africa” between 1885 and 1910 The result was a “Scramble for Africa” between 1885 and 1910. During this period, several European countries divided the continent of Africa among themselves.

Economic development played a large role in the colonization of Africa Economic development played a large role in the colonization of Africa. During the 19th century, factories in Europe required raw materials to manufacture finished products.

The Europeans looked for new sources of raw materials and markets for their goods. Gold, diamonds, and oil were some of the resources the Europeans wanted & Asia and Africa had those resources.

Politics also led to the colonization of Africa Politics also led to the colonization of Africa. Some European nations showed national pride by competing for colonies in Africa. No major nation—including Great Britain, France, and Germany—wanted to be without colonies. Colonies in Africa and Asia made the Europeans feel pride in their country.

Another reason for colonizing was the European worldview Another reason for colonizing was the European worldview. Many 19th century Europeans viewed themselves as the world’s most advanced civilization. Some felt it necessary to “civilize” people in the rest of the world. Increased activity by African missionaries helped make colonization seem less offensive to citizens in Europe.

This scramble for land also reached farther into Asia This scramble for land also reached farther into Asia. Many Asian territories saw a change from Europe as trading partner to Europe as conqueror. Great Britain, for instance, Took control of India. France Controlled lands in S.E. Asia, Including Vietnam. The British Fought for control of other lands like Burma, Laos, Siam, and Cambodia.

Nationalism & Militarism Nationalism – the love of one’s country Militarism – using strong armies and threats of war

Allied Powers Britain, France, Russia Nationalism and militarism were on the rise in Europe. European countries signed treaties agreeing to help one another in case of attack.

Central Powers Austria-Hungary, The Ottoman Empire, Bulgaria & Germany Austria-Hungary, the Ottoman Empire (Turkey and its colonies), and Bulgaria joined the Germans as the Central Powers. Because these countries were large and controlled lands around the world, the war was called the GREAT WAR.

World War I Later, the United States became involved on the side of the Allied Powers. The war lasted until 1918, and an estimated 10 million people died. Some believed it was “the war to end all wars.”

Unfortunately, just 20 years later, Europe would be at the center of an even bigger conflict. The Great War became known as World War I. The later, larger conflict was called World War II.
