Answer 2
The motive of imperialism was money land and resources. The Europeans wanted to gain more land and use the resources on that territory to gain more riches. Politically Britain wanted to obtain revenge and world prestige. If they obtained China's wealth such as their silk, they could exchange it for gold, which would boost them economically as well.
They were also motivated to spread their religion of Christianity and their style of government. The most important motive was to safeguard and protect both their their lands and their country.
Vladimir Lenin argued that imperialism has no motives. If so, then it becomes a policy. For Lenin and those who follow his ideas on imperialism, imperialism is the highest form of capitalism. It is a scientific development of it.

European countries needed new sources of raw materials to make manufactured goods in European factories. The industrial revolution began within European nations without the need for imperialism. On this point, for example, Great Britain's colonies in North America were never considered to be imperialist settlements. Cotton from the southern British-American colonies helped to supply the textile mills in England. The mills, however, were already in place. Later on as competition for power and wealth accelerated among the European powers, their imperialism in China, for example, brought with it both spheres of influence and new sources of raw materials.
Europe became a global economic superpower by exploiting the resources of its colonies. Mercantilism was an economic system by which European countries benefited economically from their colonies.
