The newly formed German Empire was among one of the only major European states not to have any colonies in Africa. This can be said also for the Holy Roman Empire that had preceded the Austro-Prussian war of 1866, which had in turn led to German unification under Otto Von Bismarck. After 1866, Bismarck did not wish to impose on the colonial interests of it's powerful neighbours and stated that he had no intentions of entering the "Scramble for Africa".

Sub-Saharan Africa was the last major area colonized by Europeans. There was remarkably little conflict among the major European powers during the rapid colonization of Africa, compared to the extensive wars over colonization in the Americas and Asia. This is in large part due to the Berlin Treaty of 1885, at which the major European powers agreed to a policy of 'notify and occupy', a coordinated and cooperative policy which resulted in the colonization of almost the entire continent in less than two decades.
