Since Europeans were more advanced, they believed that it was right for them to control "weaker" nations, which is the idea of Darwinism. When Europeans take control of these smaller nations, they take resources to help their own economy. They also try to force religion and culture on the natives which is harmful to the natives. The Europeans do this without caring for the Natives, and being selfish by taking everything.]]> 2021-04-13 14:19:27 UTC https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100383 hernanlu1 https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100388 They don't necessarily need them, but the author makes it seem like it is very important. ]]> 2021-04-13 14:19:27 UTC https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100388 hernanlu1 https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100391 2021-04-13 14:19:27 UTC https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100391 hernanlu1 https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100393 2021-04-13 14:19:27 UTC https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100393 hernanlu1 https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100394 The Europeans wanted what China had so they went and took over some of their trading ports which produced a lot of wealth. Some Chinese Nationalists wanted to go against the Chinese dynasty since they had an alliance with the Europeans. The formed what they called "The Righteous Harmony Fists" but now are known as the boxers. Soon the nations formed a bigger alliance with Germany, France, Russia, Britain, and the U.S. They ended the rebellion. They also captured the boxers and executed them.]]> 2021-04-13 14:19:27 UTC https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100394 hernanlu1 https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100396 The Europeans and the Chinese dynasty wanted to send kind of like a threat.

The reasons were understandable, but they went too far with it by murdering Europeans and Christian missionaries and burning/looting cities. They were dealt with very harshly too, but it was the least that the alliance could do to stop it since the boxers were very persistent with their goal. ]]> 2021-04-13 14:19:27 UTC https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100410 hernanlu1 https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100415 White Man's burden]]> 2021-04-13 14:19:27 UTC https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100415 hernanlu1 https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100421 The school and the native that the American is carrying stand out to me. They gave the native animal-like features, which shows what they think of these Natives. They think of the natives as "savages" instead of an actual human. The American is taking the Native to a school house, which is where they try to "civilize" them and to get them to convert to Christianity. The School house also has an American flag on it, so this shows that Americans also believed in the White Man's burden and not just the Europeans. ]]> 2021-04-13 14:19:27 UTC https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100421 hernanlu1 https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100423 This cartoon is made to promote social goals. The social goal it is promoting is the White Man's burden. The American is carrying a native towards a school house with an American flag on top of it. This may be where they teach the Natives about Christianity. Knowing that these people are American proves that the White Man's burden is a well known thing, that not only Europeans believe, or that they brought the idea to America.]]> 2021-04-13 14:19:27 UTC https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100423 hernanlu1 https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100426 The Europeans think Africa is sort of weak since they are taking advantage of them. They used Africa as hunting grounds, just to take things and leave. They also used Africa for materials, trade, and new markets. The Europeans see Africa as their personal playground. ]]> 2021-04-13 14:19:27 UTC https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100426 hernanlu1 https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100429 The name "The Scramble for Africa"   fits because the Europeans all wanted what Africa had and took everything without permission. They invaded and took advantage of Africa for materials and hunting. They also really want to "civilize" the natives, by educating them about Christianity.]]> 2021-04-13 14:19:27 UTC https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100429 hernanlu1 https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100434 The Europeans came to Africa, basically invading. They hunted, and took their resources without permission. They believed they could do all of this because they think Africa is weak, and they can't do anything about. This ties into Darwinism because it's the belief that it's okay for stronger nations to take over weaker nations. The Europeans also forced their religion and culture onto the African natives, because they thought the weren't civilized for not being Christian. ]]> 2021-04-13 14:19:27 UTC https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1412100434 hernanlu1 https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1421384547 The Age of Imperialism does deserve a bad rap because of all the things they did to other "weaker" nations. The goals of imperialism are political, economic, and social. The intentions are okay but the results never were. Most political goals were to introduce new ideas for new forms of government, to secure land and power, conquer land, and to build military outposts and bases. There was also something called Darwinism. Darwinism is the belief that it is only natural for larger and stronger nations to conquer and take control of smaller and weaker nations. All of these beliefs and goals led those stronger nations to conquer and take control of the weaker nations. These stronger nations would go to the weaker nations and they would take the natural resources that the land has just to help their own economy, which harms the natives economy since their resources are being taken from them. Social goals weren't any less harmful. These social goals included the White Man's burden. The White Man's burden was the belief that it is the Europeans job to educate natives about Christianity, which they thought would "civilize" them. It was all forced onto them. The political cartoon I looked at which shows the White Man's burden. In the picture, there is an American carrying a native to a school house. The fact the the American is carrying the native just shows that they did not have a choice. These weaker nations could not do anything about, but it still does not make it right for bigger nations to go and invade the smaller ones. Imperialism also led to rebellions against it like the the boxers during the Spheres of influence. During that time, Europeans were starting to take over a lot of what China gained profit from. Chinese nationalists saw this as invading and wanted it to stop. The boxers burned down and looted cities, and murdered Europeans and Christian Missionaries. It was very harmful to their own country and other nations. All in all, they were stopped by an alliance of 5 nations. A lot of harm was done and if imperialism wasn't a thing, none of that would've happened.]]> 2021-04-15 14:49:09 UTC https://padlet.com/hernanlu1/4py2sefygwcysph7/wish/1421384547
