Paper Summary:

This paper presents an overview of European imperialist policies in Africa, including religious influence, economic change, and social stratification caused by the various European powers who colonized the continent.

From the Paper:

"During the period of imperialism and colonial expansion of Western power in the late 19th century, vast empires were developed as European governments scrambled frantically for territory. "White" people came to rule millions of "black", "brown" and "yellow" people in Africa and Asia. There were many reasons and many justifications for the expansion, but it is generally accepted that competition for trade, superior military force, nationalism, and a racist belief in European superiority were among the most important."
