The Scramble For Africa

The term "Scrabble for Africa" meant how European countries ( France, Great Britain, Germany, Spain, Germany, Italy, and Portugal) were so obsessed with the new land that everybody wanted Africa for their resources. They were all competing for resources. There resources were gold, wood,rubber, iron, tin, diamond, silver, copper, salt, ivory and other valuables. They were able to dominate Africa because they just invented
the machine gun and they also found the cure for malaria. With the cure of malaria they were able to go to the jungles and not die of the mosquitoes bites.

Most of the new things that the Africans were know affect them because they had to gave to the British people some of them lands and they kill some of the people of Africa and separated some of them tribes, also this provided the families separated each one.
