Cecil Rhodes traveled to Africa primarily for economic opportunities and to expand British colonial influence. He sought to exploit the region's rich mineral resources, particularly gold and diamonds, which he believed would enrich both himself and Britain. Rhodes aimed to establish a continuous British territory from the Cape Colony to Cairo, driven by his belief in British superiority and Imperialism. His ventures significantly impacted the political and social landscape of Southern Africa.
