Some missionaries supported European colonization of Africa because they believed it provided an opportunity to spread Christianity and promote Western values, which they viewed as a civilizing mission. They often saw colonization as a means to improve the lives of African people through education, healthcare, and social reforms. However, this support was complex, as it sometimes ignored the negative impacts of colonization, including cultural erasure and exploitation. Ultimately, many missionaries thought that their religious and moral goals aligned with colonial ambitions.

The economy in Africa changed significantly due to European colonization. European powers exploited Africa's resources for their own benefit, leading to the extraction of natural resources, forced labor, and the establishment of trade networks that favored European countries. This exploitation disrupted traditional African economies and led to the impoverishment of many African communities. Additionally, the introduction of cash crops and the imposition of taxes further disrupted local economies and led to a dependence on European markets. Overall, European colonization had a detrimental impact on the economic development of Africa.
