Europeans sought to colonize Africa for several reasons, including economic interests, the desire for new markets, and access to valuable resources such as minerals, rubber, and agricultural products. Additionally, the competition among European powers for global dominance fueled the race for colonies. Political motives, including national prestige and the belief in the civilizing mission, also played a significant role in the colonization efforts. This led to significant exploitation and disruption of African societies and cultures.
