Describe the European attitudes towards Africa (make sure to include info from all 4 sources)

# data[].attributes.body
Europe saw Africa as a place with many valuable, raw materials such as oil, sugar, coffee, timber, and etc. They believe it is bountiful in items they can use, and since slavery from Africa had stopped in Europe, they had decided to use Africa for its natural resources or crops. They even killed animals and used products from them and have a "I don't care" attitude about it, meanwhile exploiting Africa for all it's worth.

I analyzed the Source 3: Britain in Africa cartoon. This one seems most interesting to me.

A sphere of influence is known as when a country controls territory in a foreign land. Many countries owned parts of China at the time, such as Germany, Russia, Britain, France, etc. These European countries were practically owning China, which caused some people to revolt against them. They were most angry at them for taking over trading ports, and selling China goods for their own gain with China getting a very small percentage in return.

Does Germany Need Colonies? Explain how this author makes the case for German Nationalism.

# data[].attributes.body
Author explains the case for German Nationalism by stating how strong Germany is and balanced with powerful military that it could easily overpower England, for it has even helped out England in previous years. England is not as steady, and they could attempt to take over their lands or attack so they should make a move.

Why is the name "The Scramble for Africa" fitting?

Why is the name "The Scramble for Africa" fitting?

# data[].attributes.body
This name is fitting since all Europeans that come just seem to go back and forth, taking what they want from the country, and then leaving. The people will take the goods for there own money earnings, and not give Africa any. They do not seem to care, and chaos is created due to this, so to refer to this as a "scramble" is very fitting.

# data[].attributes.body
What stood out most to me was that not only was this a sketch of an European explorer, he was made into a giant, standing over the whole country of Africa. I find this a strange yet valid representation of how European explorers acted as if they owned Africa and totally paints the picture for what it was like. Another thing I took from this was the clouds surrounding Africa, maybe this could mean that "the weather is getting worse" which really means that the country of Africa is becoming a worse place since everyone is just fighting over goods and lands now.

Using the images explain what type of message European powers and the Chinese dynasty wished to send to dissenters?

# data[].attributes.body
Based on the images shown below, the message or messages that European powers & Chinese dynasty had were that if you did not comply, or if you revolted against the powers that be, or even the controlling of other countries for China, you would be murdered, or even worse, murdered and then have your head hung up on a stick. They did this to scare people people to stay in line, and do as European officials said or the dynasty. Europeans earned most wealth from China, instead of the people of China who only earned the scraps.

"The fact is that England tenaciously holds on to its worldwide possessions with scarcely onefourth the manpower of our continental military state. That is not only a great economic advantage but also a striking proof of the solid power and cultural fiber of England." & " In this new Reich of ours there is so much bitterness, so much unfruitful, sour, and poisoned political wrangling, that the opening of a new, promising road of national effort will act as a kind of liberating influence." & "Should not the German nation, so seaworthy, so industrially and commercially minded, more than other peoples geared to agricultural colonization"

Supporting Question: In what ways was Africa exploited?

# data[].attributes.body
Africa was exploited because Europe used it as a resource, taking goods and items from the country, and sold them for their own money gain, while Africa did not get a penny. Animals and others were even killed for their goods. Even in previous years, Africa was exploited by the use of slavery. Money was the main thing on European's minds now though. No permission was asked, they took what they wanted and left leaving Africa used and exploited for years.

Does this cartoon promote social, political, or economic goals and how do you know?

# data[].attributes.body
I think this mostly represents political goals, since this depicts a picture of an explorer, over the whole country. This involves the fight over land, and trying to maintain the most power and own as much land, along with taking the most goods. It represents the wanting of power and control most explorers want when coming to these new countries. The strings whoever, that the explorer is holding, could represent social goals, for those are communication lines, which are barely hanging on due to the fact that communication is strained because of these explorers that are invading.

To some extent, it can be dangerous for it could lead to Germany holding power over all countries, and being the powerhouse holding all countries together, and radicals could cause problems and unexcepting people.

Supporting Question: Were the Boxers justified in their revolt?

# data[].attributes.body
I feel that the reason for it in spirit might be justified, for they feel they are not being treated rightfully, and think a change needs to come and money needs to come to the people, but the destruction of buildings and stealing and killing of people was not needed. They could have handled things another way, such as if people tried to stop them, then rioting was an option. Overall, the reason behind wanting to revolt was justified, but the actions taken to get the power and money they wanted were not as justified, they could have done other things besides killing random people and destructing different buildings.

They are not harmless, for these "goals" could cause problems down the road, for the native people who live there will be taken advantage of by these new comers and not realize that they are being brainwashed until it is too late.

Overall, the Age of Imperialism did deserve a bad rap, for it left a long lasting strain between countries for years and years. Communication between people of different grounds was tarnished, for social encounters did not end up well. As for politics, it definitely left a negative effect behind. Everyone fought for lands in countries, with little stability holding politics together. Lastly, when it comes to economics, trade is still strained for their is still a feeling of uncertainty from years previously, due to how other countries used to treat others. Basically, the past haunts the future of decisions and the state of politics, economics, and social interactions, so the Age of Imperialism deserves the hate it gets.
