    One of the main events that was responsible for the new imperialism was the Industrial Revolution. Advancement of technology helped the European nations to gain control over many areas in the New World. There were also other forces involved with the start of imperialism; economic force [survival of the fittest], political force [growing power of the government], and social forces [racism]. All of these forces along with the Industrial Revolution played a role in the start of imperialism in the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries.…

    During the late 1800’s, Europe was looking for a way to improve themselves as a whole. With growing population and a steady decline in available work, something new had to be done. Countries looked towards Africa to serve as new colonies for the Europeans in order to better their own countries. During the European acquisition of African colonies in the period 1880 to 1914 Europe’s attitude towards Africa was that Africa was the inferior race in comparison to the Europeans. With the help of a strong feeling of nationalism, Europeans were motivated to acquire new lands in order to improve their motherland’s power and economy with new available work.…

    During the nineteenth century, European nations were far superior and dominant over Africa. I believe one of the main reasons for western dominance was because the African countries had barely come into contact with the outside world, therefore, causing their lifestyles to be extremely primitive. On the other hand, Europe had been growing and innovating over the years. Some of the advantages Europe had over…

    Some of the reasons the Europeans’ sought out to imperialism is because of social Darwinism, raw materials and natural resources, and prestige. Social Darwinism, the theory of survival of the fittest, was their justification for conquering weaker countries, if the country could fend off invaders then it shall be considered conquered. Raw materials and natural resources were of big importance to the Europeans. Diamonds and other precious assets that could not be found in Europe were found in the countries and could be used for trade, making the economy better. Prestige was also a major influence for imperialistic Europe. If one country had more than another then that country had to conquer more. It was all like a big game to the Europeans, until the natives of the country fought back. Then it was all a strategically thought out counter attack.…

    I prefer Around the horn because it has more sport talk then espn news and they believe in what the other person is talking about . There is a guy name mike and he is the main guy that do most of the talking but there are other people on the show that interrupts when he talking . He does not use open ended questions much. Also it is a great show to watch because when a main topic is brought up about a person like Kobe Bryant mike is the first person to say something but it is five people at the table and they just interrupts mike when he is talking but he do get his point across to the people. In closing Around the Horn is a great sports show to look at it is a round table talk and great for sports fans. .…

    There are two different kinds of people. The dog person, and the cat person. The kind hearted, friendly individual, and the aloof, left brained individual. We all know who is who. Certain people come to everyone’s mind when the words “dog person” and “cat person” are brought about. Is it the difference in personality or temperament from one person to another? It very well would could be. Dogs and cats mean a lot to different people, but can a cat be taught to protect its owner? No, not to just claw at anyone who comes near its companion, but really PROTECT that person? Can a cat be potty trained? It is possible, but dogs are MUCH easier to be taught to do anything by command. Cats get bored by the affection of their human, and find ways to keep to and entertain themselves. Dogs thrive off of human attention. They live to love their person. This being said, dogs are better companions than cats. They’re more loyal and social. They are also much easier to care for.…
