    COLONIZATION

    AND XV-XIV
    IMPERIALISM

    DEFINITION
    IMPERIALISM IS A POLITICAL DOCTRINE
    THAT DEFENDS THE RIGHT OF SOME
    ECONOMICALLY, RACIALLY OR
    CULTURALLY SUPERIOR COUNTRIES OVER
    OTHERS THAT ARE NOT SO SUPERIOR.
    WHILE COLONIALISM IS (GROSSLY)
    CARRYING OUT THIS DOCTRINE IN
    COLONIES TO EXPLOIT THEM
    ECONOMICALLY

    CAUSES

    THE POWER OF A COUNTRY IS


    DEFINED BY THE NUMBER OF
    COLONIES THAT IT HAS. ALSO
    ONE OF THE REASONS FOR THE
    NEED TO COLONIZE WAS
    DEMOGRAPHIC, THE COLONIZING
    POWERS WERE DENSELY
    POPULATED COUNTRIES THAT
    NEEDED A PLACE TO DUMP THEIR
    EXCESS POPULATION. THE LAST
    ONE WAS ECONOMICAL, THESE
    COLONIES CREATED A NEW TIPE OF COLONIES
    MARKET AND MADE POSSIBLE THE MANAGEMENT OF THESE
    TERRITORIES WAS ORGANIZED
    EXTRACT RAW MATERIALS VERY
    INTO 3 TYPES. THE COLONY: IT
    CHEAPLY TO BE ABLE TO USE WAS A TERRITORY DIRECTLY
    THEM IN THE INDUSTRY OR RELATED TO THE METROPOLIS, IT
    RESELL THEM BETWEEN WAS DIRECTED BY A GOVERNOR
    COUNTRIES WITHOUT COLONIES AND THE INDIANS WERE TREATED
    AS AN INFERIOR CLASS. THE
    PROTECTORATES: THEY HAD
    THEORETICAL INDEPENDENCE BUT
    THE METROPOLIS HAD JUDICIAL
    AND POLITICAL POWER. FINALLY,
    POWER OF ENGLAND CONCESSIONS WERE TERRITORIES
    CEDED FROM A COUNTRY TO A
    THE ENGLISH EMPIRE WAS VERY POWER WHERE IT GOVERNED.
    POWERFUL DURING THIS TIME,
    BEGINNING WITH THE
    CONQUEST OF AUSTRALIA AND
    EGYPT. HAVING AS A TIME OF
    SPLENDOR THE ONE BETWEEN
    1840-1900 WHEN THEY
    MANAGED TO ESTABLISH POWER
    IN TERRITORIES SUCH AS MOST
    OF AFRICA, ASIA, HONG KONG
    OR CANADA.
    POWER OF
    FRANCE
    THE FRENCH EMPIRE
    HAD A LESS LATE
    START AND ALSO
    LESS DEVELOPED
    POWER. ALTHOUGH
    IT DID TAKE
    TERRITORIES IN
    AFRICA, CHINA,
    SYRIA, LEBANON AND
    ALGERIA
    THE BERLIN CONGRESS

    THE BERLIN CONFERENCE WAS


    HELD IN ORDER TO ORGANIZE
    AND LAY THE FOUNDATIONS FOR
    THE COLONIZATION OF AFRICA
    (EXPLORATION, OCCUPATION,
    ETC.).

    AFTERMATH
    THE MAIN CONSEQUENCES
    OF COLONIALISM WERE THE
    LOSS OF DIVERSITY SINCE
    THE PREDOMINANT
    LANGUAGE AND CULTURES
    WERE COLONIZERS. THE
    RADICAL CHANGE OF
    ECONOMY THAT USED TO BE
    MULTI-CROP AND
    SUBSISTENCE MOVING TO A
    MONOCULTURE WITH THE
    FOCUS OF EXPORTATION. IT
    ALSO BROKE CULTURAL TIES
    AS SEPARATE TWINNED
    COUNTRIES (CASE OF
    AFRICA) AND EVEN
    UNLEASHED WARS.
