Imperialism was part of the aggressive foreign policies of powerful nations dating well back into history. In speaking of more recent history, imperialism played a role of expanding the colonial empires of powerful European nations as well as other powerful ones. Up until the end of the Soviet empire, all colonies and even whole countries under the influence of greater powers both benefited and suffered under the yoke of imperialism. One affect of imperialism was to spread the politics and culture of the power controlling other nations and colonies. Some affects can be viewed as positive but at the cost of freedom. For example no one will or better said, few will doubt that India benefited by the British control, but yes at the cost of Indian freedom.
