The scramble for Africa was a part of the second age of Imperialism (which focused not only on Africa, but also Asia and the Pacific). Europeans had a belief known as Social Darwinism, where they believed Europeans were superior and should rule over the inferior races. They conquered lands and used the natives for labor, took their resources, spread Christianity, etc.
