The British and French Colonization System

Paper Summary:

This paper briefly discusses the types of governing system both of these European powers used when taking control of Africa countries. It looks at the similarities between both systems and their flaws.

From the Paper:

"The colonization in Africa resulted in trouble times for many Africans. The French colonized much of the Western border, while the British colonized parts of South Africa. The British and the French both wanted to conquer as much land as possible. As a result colonization began, and Africans fell under French or British rule. Despite African resistance these powers took over land in Africa, and the African values were ignored. France had control over Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia, Ivory Coast, Mauritania, Mali, Niger, and Benin, whereas Britain controlled Ghana, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Gambia, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Zambia, and Kenya."
