The growth of Imperialism from the late 1870s to 1914 was primarily driven by economic motivations, including the search for new markets and raw materials to fuel industrial expansion. Additionally, nationalistic fervor and competition among European powers intensified, leading countries to acquire colonies as symbols of national strength and prestige. Technological advancements in transportation and communication also facilitated the expansion of empires, while social Darwinist ideologies promoted the belief in the superiority of Western civilizations, justifying imperialist endeavors.
