Here is a list of major colonial powers in chronological order:

  1. Portugal: Portugal was one of the first colonial powers, establishing colonies in Africa, Asia, and the Americas in the 15th and 16th centuries, including Brazil and territories in Africa and Asia.

  2. Spain: Spain also established a vast colonial empire during the 15th and 16th centuries, including territories in the Americas, parts of Africa, and the Philippines. The Spanish Empire was one of the largest and most influential colonial powers.

  3. Netherlands: The Netherlands, particularly the Dutch East India Company, emerged as a major colonial power in the 17th century. They had colonies in Asia, including Indonesia, and established trading posts in Africa, the Americas, and the Caribbean.

  4. Great Britain: Great Britain became a dominant colonial power during the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries. They established colonies in North America, the Caribbean, Africa, India, and other parts of Asia and the Pacific. The British Empire was one of the largest and most powerful colonial empires.

  5. France: France had colonies in Africa, North America, the Caribbean, and Asia during the 17th to 19th centuries. The French colonies included territories such as Algeria, Canada, India, and parts of Southeast Asia.

  6. Belgium: Belgium established colonies in Africa, most notably the Belgian Congo (present-day Democratic Republic of the Congo), during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

  7. Germany: Germany entered the colonial race in the late 19th century and established colonies in Africa, including German South-West Africa (Namibia) and German East Africa (Tanzania, Rwanda, and Burundi), as well as Pacific islands.

These are just some of the major colonial powers, and there were several other European countries that had smaller colonies or controlled territories at various times throughout history.
