WORLD HISTORY

Detailed explanation-1: -Old imperialism required maintaining an area as a physical colony. However, new imperialism focused on expanding influence over local governments, using colonies for military bases, establishing black markets to take over existing markets, and building railroads.

Detailed explanation-2: -Many countries in the world experienced imperialism when they were taken over and ruled by a more powerful country. The main motive for imperialism was to obtain and control a supply of raw materials for industries. This meant that a weaker country with abundant natural resources would be colonised.

Detailed explanation-3: -In the mid to late 19th century, the European powers colonized much of Africa and Southeast Asia. During the decades of imperialism, the industrializing powers of Europe viewed the African and Asian continents as reservoirs of raw materials, labor, and territory for future settlement.

Detailed explanation-4: -To continue industrializing, Europeans needed more natural resources. They also wanted to sell more manufactured goods. One solution was to take over weaker nations and force trade. This was called imperialism.
