¨Imperialists gained control of Africa through many different steps. They already had trading posts on costal areas which they used as harbors when making transatlantic journeys or going to Southeast Asia. They also had ties with African traders who traded good and slaves. In the late 1800s, explorers were sent into the continent to explore geography, resources, and what kind of people lived there. Doing this, they discovered there were over 700 ethnic groups that lived there and were different from each other with their own languages and cultures. With the help of this information, the Europeans 'Scrambled for Africa' and ended up dividing it between the different empires.
