Imperialism Help or Hinder?



Did imperialism help or hinder the world?

HELP

• Helped to jumpstart countries that were lacking because they would then be influenced by a greater country and leadership and regultions would set in forcing the poor country to pick up the pace.
• It also allowed for powerfull countries to put goods that wern't currently being marketed on the market because the countries that originaly had them were either too small to trade on a global scale or they were just too under developed to realize what goods or raw materials they actually had and the value they would be worth to other people in the world.
• Imprialism spread good ideas for governments, laws, regulations, and other various ideas to different parts of the world and thu would have an umpact on neighboring countries.

HINDER

• It did not allow cultures to develope in their own way but forced them to change to their standards, beliefs, and ideas.
• It did not allow countries to take a spot on a global scale for themselves but it took their chance away and took the spotlight for themselves.
• Imperialism divided Africa and it cultures or forced cultures together that didnt like each other.
