What Were The Negative Effects Of Imperialism

The experience of colonized peoples under imperialism may vary, that is, depending on the people, and their experience may be on the one hand negative and on the other positive. Imperialism had great negative impacts on the colonized population, although some say that there were positive impacts does not detract from the fact that there were more consequences than benefits.
