By gaining control over as much land as possible, Europeans could establish cheap sources of raw materials for the production of finished goods.
Corporations used Social Darwinism to justify their business practices and the concentration of wealth, arguing that their success in the marketplace was a natural result of their superiority and efficiency. This ideology promoted the idea that competition was essential for societal progress, suggesting that the "fittest" companies would thrive while weaker ones would fail. By adopting this perspective, corporations rationalized exploitative labor practices, monopolistic behaviors, and the widening gap between rich and poor as a natural and beneficial outcome of economic competition. Ultimately, Social Darwinism provided an ideological framework that minimized the need for social responsibility and regulation.

Social Darwinism was the idea that different societies and races compete for survival in a similar way to species in nature, with the fittest coming out on top. This concept was used to justify European imperialism in Asia and Africa by suggesting that it was not only beneficial but also natural for superior European nations to dominate and exploit weaker non-European societies.
In the 1800�s, Social Darwinists took Darwin�s theory of natural selection and used it to justify imperialism by believing the most ñsocially fitî white races had the divine right to dominate the ñlesser racesî. This belief allowed colonialists to believe that it was right that they should seize and enjoy riches while the inferior races languished in poverty.

Social Darwinism justified the belief that certain individuals or groups were inherently superior to others, based on the idea of survival of the fittest. It was often used to justify imperialism, racism, and economic inequality by suggesting that these were natural outcomes of competition and evolution.
Europeans used science to justify imperialism through ideas such as Social Darwinism, which argued that certain races and societies were biologically superior to others. They also used anthropology to classify and rank different cultures, providing a framework to justify European domination and colonization of "lesser" societies. Additionally, Europeans used advances in technology and medicine to portray themselves as more advanced and capable of bringing progress and civilization to the "uncivilized" populations they sought to control.
