2) Explain how the Berlin Conference and the imperialism of Africa that ensued effected the both the colonized Africans and the European colonizers?

The European nations met at the Berlin conference to lay down rules for the division of Africa since France owned a lot of land due to napoleon Bonaparte. The Berlin conference and the imperialism of Africa affected both the colonized Africans and the European colonizers. The Europeans got more lands and more wealth due to natural resources of Africa while the Africans got less land and some got their culture and tradition changed. This was because of assimilation and colonization. Though, assimilation is when people of a different background come to see themselves as a part of a larger national family. Therefore most Africans died of warfare and as you can read the Europeans got what they wanted while the Africans lost almost everything.
