The major difference was "new" Imperialism took entire countries. Old colonial ways had small port cities or a city here and there...new imperialism was on a much larger scale. England is always the example to follow. One of their interesting colonial evolutions happened in India. In the 1600s India was ruled by the Moguls (Muslims from Afghanistan/Pakistan) and the Brits slowly gained a foothold in southern port cities. Eventually through armed conflict the British took the entire "country" of India. Interesting side note....the Brits fought the Moguls for control of territories in India. The Moguls used early forms of rocketry (This was during the early 1700s). The U.S. national anthem has the famous line "and the rocket's red glare." This anthem was written during the War of 1812, when U.S and British forces battled, and these rockets used by the Brits were actually a Mogul invention. Sorry, got off-course...So anywho...look at the British conquest of India, and others in Africa, as an example of old imperialism to new imperialism...
