The native people didn’t even have control of their own home. The Europeans came to India after the Indians were already there, and then the British took almost all of the control and authority from the native Indians. “Europeans (the British) occupy almost all of the higher places in every department of government.” (Naoroji, Doc.2) India was most impacted by the British colonization because economic developments and industries only benefited the British. The British came into India and then stopped almost all of the Indian economy, for a new one where the British have the advantage over the native people.
Because of cheap british good many to all weavers lost their jobs and became impoverished as said in document 3. So yes the british showed they could control an economy very well however they could not control the ruined land and people. Despite the fact Britain created sound laws against killing, economic opportunities and improved the health of most indians they still caused more harm than
African civilizations were transformed through trade. This allowed art and government for new developments and changes. As civilizations changed, aesthetics advanced based on the geography and new cultural aspects, along with new governing influences. These African civilizations thrived on their own by using leadership and other ideas from neighboring trade countries. Trade modified aspects of certain kingdoms from religion to social structures.
Amadou Hampaté Bâ is extremely detailed throughout the book, The Fortunes of Wangrin, in explaining the colonial world in West African societies. He provides multiple examples in this work of fiction that precisely describe the factual aspects of African colonialism that we have discussed in class. I will point out a few of the examples that Bâ uses such as: limitations colonial governments set on Africans, the Métis relationships within colonies, and issues that arose, not only between Europeans and Africans, but within the native African communities as well. I will then point out certain details from the book that do not perfectly reflect the components of colonialism that we have studied in lecture.
Just like the Jews escaping from Hitler, African Americans escaped and ended slavery. They did it using various methods. Some of which were passing information to the Union Army, escaping to northern territories, and serving in the Union Army(Doc. 1)(Doc. 2)(Doc.
There was a lot of controversy on whether the intentions of the British was helpful or harmful. When the British established Imperialism in both Africa and India, it led to poverty and starvation of the citizens. These hardships
According to African Perspectives on colonialism, written by A.Adu Boahen in 1987, The elite produced by these colonial educational were with few exceptions people who were alienated from their own society in terms of their dress, outlook, and tastes in food, music,and even dance…. They worshipped European culture… and looked down upon their own( Document 2). Essentially what A.Adu Boahen is saying is that the Africans became more alienated from their culture as the European created the colonial education system. The fact that the creation of the colonial schools caused many Africans to be deprived of their culture and even look down upon it shows that European imperialism was harmful. In The Dual Mandate of British Tropical Africa, Fredrick Lugard states ,We are endeavoring to teach the native races to conduct their own affairs with justice and humanity, and to educate them alike in letters and in industry( Document 9).
This is absolute moral destruction on the side of the natives. Imperialists make them feel inadequate and irresponsible, which is no way to be forced to live. Document 6, written by an egocentric Briton. Cecil Rhodes blatantly states that “[Britons] are the finest race in the world, and the more of the world we inhabit, the better it is for the human race…more Angle Saxon race, more of the best, the most human, most honourable race the world possesses” (Rhodes). If this is not the most egocentric, racist statement, then imperialism has positive moral outcomes.
Native American Research: Chief Pontiac Intro Chief Pontiac is a Native American that is important to the United States’ history. He was a part of the Ottawa tribe and led the American Indians to a revolution also known as the Pontiac War or Pontiac’s Rebellion, which was against the British when they first came to America. He wasn’t afraid to die for his rights. He believed that they all had rights to live in America and to live how they wanted to live. I chose him for my Native American Research because he was a courageous Native American hero.
The effect that British colonialism had on India was that most of the people there were forced to work for the British. They were not able to handle their own government which caused them to revolt against their own people. As a result the British people took away all of their riches. They were also forced to stay away from the temples and their foods. British Colonialism affected India in their economics, laws, culture, art, and technology.
From eight present-day states; Virginia, West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama, North Carolina, and South Carolina, more than forty thousand square miles, lived the largest Native American tribe in the United States. The Cherokee. The Cherokee were once a very powerful tribe, they had lived and hunted in a large area of land. Like many Native American tribes, the Cherokee had called themselves “the real people” or the “principal people”. In Cherokee, that word is Ani-Yun-wiya.
Native Americans were devastating negatively impacted by the imperial relationship between Britain and the

European imperialism affected the economy of natives because they removed all the crops to replace them with cash crops beneficial for them. That angered the Native people of Africa. Their resources were being replaced, and it wasn't benefiting them. That lead to natives loosing their independence which made them feel oppressed and frustrated. Replacing their agriculture disrupted their village life.
Although colonialism was viewed negative by farmers who were getting their lands taken away, Kenya did benefit through British colonization. Throughout a new government, conversion in religion, and change in jobs and schooling, Kenya was affected educationally, religiously, socially,
