Europe, specifically Britain, controlled much of Asia and Africa. While the U.S. controlled, much of Latin America and the Caribbean.]]> 2018-02-26 21:11:41 UTC https://padlet.com/sadekfamily/stj51s83az9b/wish/235636918 sadekfamily https://padlet.com/sadekfamily/stj51s83az9b/wish/235637415 To Europe, India was an excellent source of raw materials. They created the East India British Company "improve peaceful relations". To improve the country they forced their religion and culture on them and the sepoy mutiny was an outlier of their help. When they boycotted British goods the British thought they were ungrateful for what was given to them.]]> 2018-02-26 21:13:11 UTC https://padlet.com/sadekfamily/stj51s83az9b/wish/235637415 sadekfamily https://padlet.com/sadekfamily/stj51s83az9b/wish/235637592 India saw Europe, specifically Britain as chaos igniters to turn the table to their own good. They hated being forced to take up all of the foreign customs. All progressed until the British violated an important rule of their religion. They made a mutiny against them and then they created a national congress to give more freedom to their people.]]> 2018-02-26 21:13:37 UTC https://padlet.com/sadekfamily/stj51s83az9b/wish/235637592 sadekfamily https://padlet.com/sadekfamily/stj51s83az9b/wish/235637823 In Europes perspective, China was a trading source. In china opium was banned, but since the Europeans found a high demand for it they started smuggling it through trading ports. In retaliation, China sent a force to destroy the trade but the British Navy was far too strong. Europe found this an opportunity to force them to sign a treaty that caused them to trade more.]]> 2018-02-26 21:14:16 UTC https://padlet.com/sadekfamily/stj51s83az9b/wish/235637823 sadekfamily https://padlet.com/sadekfamily/stj51s83az9b/wish/235638817 Chinese saw Europe as an abuser. When the Chinese tried to stop opium addiction because of the British smuggling it to merchants they were attacked by the much larger force of the British force. They then forced the Chinese to sign an unequal treaty in the Bitish's favor. In rebellion, a group formed called the Boxers to fend of British, but again, they were defeated. ]]> 2018-02-26 21:16:55 UTC https://padlet.com/sadekfamily/stj51s83az9b/wish/235638817 sadekfamily https://padlet.com/sadekfamily/stj51s83az9b/wish/235639111 To Europe, Africa was a place to improve upon. In order to do that they changed their religion, culture, customs, and way of life and government "for the betterment of the natives". This is a great example of social darwinism.]]> 2018-02-26 21:17:52 UTC https://padlet.com/sadekfamily/stj51s83az9b/wish/235639111 sadekfamily https://padlet.com/sadekfamily/stj51s83az9b/wish/235639355 To the African's, Europeans were greedy natural resource bingers in the cover of making them a better country. They acted like we were kids that needed to be taught the basics of life. Even when we tried to resist them they pushed back. Their eyes glued to the economic opportunities.]]> 2018-02-26 21:18:32 UTC https://padlet.com/sadekfamily/stj51s83az9b/wish/235639355 sadekfamily https://padlet.com/sadekfamily/stj51s83az9b/wish/235640211 In Americas eyes, Cuba was the brother from another mother fighting for the same cause that they fought for not so long ago. Freedom. So they pitched in to help by joining the defeated Cuban forces and helping them win the Spanish-American war. As a result, America gained three territories and decided to keep Cuba under it's wings to guide them though their newly established freedom]]> 2018-02-26 21:20:49 UTC https://padlet.com/sadekfamily/stj51s83az9b/wish/235640211 sadekfamily https://padlet.com/sadekfamily/stj51s83az9b/wish/235640579 In Cuba's perspective, America was hiding it's real target under a blanket of sympathy and brotherhood. They took advantage of our weak position in the Spanish-American War, Our troops defeated and forced in to camps. When they (America) gained control of Guam, Puerto Rica and the Philippines their selfish thirst wasn't quenched. They then took us too to "guide" us]]> 2018-02-26 21:21:46 UTC https://padlet.com/sadekfamily/stj51s83az9b/wish/235640579
