What was the intended purpose for calling the Berlin Conference?

To ease the growing tensions over the colonization of Africa.
The purpose was not to ease tensions. Rather, the purpose was to colonize the entire continent. The Europeans that attended were not particularly interested in easing any growing tensions. To be it bluntly, those who attended drew the lines to show which European country was to be in charge in each part of Africa. No effort was made to keep people with the same languages and customs together within the same political and physical boundaries.
