a race for territory and influence
The series of conflicts among the European colonial powers.
The "Scramble for Africa" was the competition between European powers for colonies in Africa in the decades before World War I. The availability of new raw materials and labor meant that most of Africa was invaded and annexed, and divided up among the industrialized countries by the Berlin Conference (1884-1885). The process was not without warfare, as seen in the British-Dutch conflict in the second Boer War (1899-1902).
