The "Scramble for Africa" primarily involved European powers, including Britain, France, Germany, Belgium, Portugal, Italy, and Spain. These countries sought to expand their empires by colonizing vast territories across the African continent during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The Berlin Conference of 1884-1885 formalized these territorial claims and set the rules for colonization, leading to significant political and social changes in Africa. As a result, many African nations faced exploitation and disruption of their indigenous cultures and societies.
Great Britain, France, Portugal, Germany,Holland, Belgium, Italy, and Spain were all involved to different degrees in Africa.
The scramble for Africa was the initial rush by the European superpowers and other lesser monarchies, Britian, France, Germany, Portugal, belgium and Italy. The Partition of Africa took place much later when Africa was carved up between these nations obviously the stronger countries received larger colonies. This partition of Africa by European countries is the main reason for many of the wars and disagreements in Africa today over borders etc.
