The partition of Africa by European imperialist nations during the late 1800s, often referred to as the "Scramble for Africa," involved the rapid colonization and division of the continent among European powers. This process was formalized at the Berlin Conference of 1884-1885, where European nations established rules for territorial claims, often disregarding existing African societies and cultural boundaries. As a result, the continent experienced significant political, social, and economic upheaval, leading to long-lasting impacts that are still felt today.

European interest in Africa shifted from the slave trade to colonization due to increased competition among European powers for territorial control, access to resources, and strategic advantages. The decline of the transatlantic slave trade as a profitable venture also played a role, leading European nations to seek new ways to exploit African territories for economic gain and geopolitical influence through colonization.
The meeting in 1884 of 14 European nations to determine rules for dividing Africa was called the Berlin Conference. At this conference, rules were established for the colonization and division of Africa among the European powers.
