When the German Reich centuries ago stood at the pinnacle of the states of Europe, it was the Number One trade and sea power. If the New Germany wants to protect its newly won position of power for a long time, it must heed its Kultur-mission and, above all, delay no longer in the task of renewing the call for colonies.

Should not the German nation, so seaworthy, so industrially and commercially minded, more than other peoples geared to agricultural colonization, and possessing a rich and available supply of labor, all these to a greater extent than other modern culture-peoples

We must be ready to serve for the ideal, moral, and economic culture-tasks of our time. The French national-economist, Leroy Beaulieu, closed his work on colonization with these words: “That nation is the greatest in the world which colonizes most; if she does not achieve that rank today, she will make it tomorrow.]]> 2021-04-13 14:20:05 UTC https://padlet.com/higdonco/zh4pa59fn1rivnwz/wish/1412103957 higdonco https://padlet.com/higdonco/zh4pa59fn1rivnwz/wish/1412103958 Nationalism is dangerous because it causes the people to became cocky and they might take the idea that they are superior to far and start spreading the idea that they are the superior race to other cultures.]]> 2021-04-13 14:20:05 UTC https://padlet.com/higdonco/zh4pa59fn1rivnwz/wish/1412103958 higdonco https://padlet.com/higdonco/zh4pa59fn1rivnwz/wish/1412103964 China was wealthy and had many natural resources, so foreign nations decided to invade and control china.

In the background of the picture it looks like there is a ship, signifying that the man carrying the native is not from this part of the world, meaning that they are an invader forcing the natives to "learn". The hairy person is representing the natives, and by the way they are drawn they seem to be portrayed as an animal that the Europeans are trying to reform. There seems to be someone buried in the dirt shown by the boots, signifying that there was a conflict causing some people to die during this time period.]]> 2021-04-13 14:20:05 UTC https://padlet.com/higdonco/zh4pa59fn1rivnwz/wish/1412103989 higdonco https://padlet.com/higdonco/zh4pa59fn1rivnwz/wish/1412103991 Europeans saw African people as barbarians, and inferior to them.

Hunters seemed to hunt elephants for sport, as they didn't really care about them.

They collected tusks for fun and they took them as trophies and used them for ivory.

One, the age of imperialism is the age when many different countries scrambled to conquer the most land which sparked wars, big and small, causing hundreds to thousands of deaths. Two, the age of imperialism brought and or empowered the idea of social Darwinism, the idea that more powerful countries have a right to control weaker ones (EX: the British tacking over america). Three, the scrambling to colonize as many areas as possible has forced many native peoples to leave their homes, and some natives were taken as slaves.]]> 2021-04-15 14:54:29 UTC https://padlet.com/higdonco/zh4pa59fn1rivnwz/wish/1421414266
