The question I will answer is related to the colonization policies of Europe & its occupation by nations of Europe of, for the most part, the undeveloped areas of the world. I use the term "areas" as the majority of those areas occupied were not "nations" in relationship to the European powers. Spain began the conquest & occupation of Western Hemisphere civilizations in the early 1500's.
England, France, Portugal & the Netherlands soon followed and by the 1800's their colonial empires stretched around the world. England, France & Spain were the nations with the largest overseas empires. By 1950, for all practical purposes, new colonies were now free from the European powers. Yes a few areas such as Vietnam & Algeria were still part of this era, but gone were the huge empires the Europeans once had. So as far as years go, the European colonization period began in 1500 & was over ( 90% ) by 1950.
