How do MOST historians characterize the motives of Europe in its colonization of Africa?
The reasons for African colonisation were mainly economic, political and religious. During this time of colonisation, an economic depression was occurring in Europe, and powerful countries such as Germany, France, and Great Britain, were losing money.
By 1900, a significant part of Africa had been colonized primarily by seven European powers: Great Britain, France, Germany, Belgium, Spain, Portugal, and Italy. After the conquest of the decentralized and centralized African states, the European powers set out to establish colonial state systems.
