Imperialism-ME-Kelsie Hewitt

Imperialism is the economic and political domination of a strong nation over weaker ones.
European nation’s investments began to slow down so they began forming colonies in other countries like Asia and Africa.  Often times, this is achieved through military force. The goal is to dominant the whole or part of the targeted country so that land is achieved.
Latin America and seaports of Asia were the first ones to be inhabited by the Europeans. Native Americans were also settled by European rule. Doing this in Africa also helped it to where it was possible to get slaves and take them back to America.
