∙ 13y agoThe 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...

Colonization expanded national economies by acquiring access to more resources. Imperialism was an education learned by the US from European colonial empires.

Define imperialism as it existed in the 1800s?
Eurpoean Imperialism, where a country extends its influence and culture through trade, diplomacy, and military, had been steadily growing since the late 1400's, when countries started to acquire colonies. Colonies eventually became part of empires, Britain's being the largest and most affluent in the 1800's. Before empires were built, however, the forces of Nationalism within various European states caused them to attempt to expand borders and commerce at the expense of their neighbors. The rise of the British Empire in the mid 1800's and earlier, the expansion of France under Napoleon in the late 1700's, induced other European powers, notably Germany and Italy, to consolidate and develop their own brand of Nationalism, then acquire their own colonies as their own form of Imperialism. This competition among the major European Powers, inside and outside of Europe, finally resulted in major conflict in 1914 causing the First World War.
