What fact caused Africa to be more easily conquered by the Europeans?
THEY COLONIZE AFRICA BCAUSE THEY HAD MORE MONEY AND STUFF THE COULDNT AFFORD^^^Firstly, this question is misleading because it wasn't "easy" to colonize Africa. They colonized Africa, possibly catalyzed by the internal oppression (religious, gender, etc.) within Europe during that era in history. There was wide spread greed and corruption which spilled over into the continent of Africa. It was the first leg in the Trans-Atlantic Enslavement.Another possibly reason was the ego-centric culture of the [ancient] Europeans. At the time, most europeans were [still] ignorant to the full histories and cultures of Africa. They still thought the world was flat, for crying out loud./They incorrectly credited the Greeks with the foundation of civilization. This was because the Greeks incorrectly credited Socrates, Aristotle, Plato and others (not before condemning and exiling them for bringing and teaching foreign ideals to Greece). Indeed they get credit for founding civilization in Europe, but those very first Greek philosophers received their knowledge of mythology, philosophy, science, etc. from the ancient Egyptians of Africa./It's 2012 AD, let's stop teaching our children fabrications, half-truths and lies.
Why was there such a rush to colonize Africa?
Well, there may be various reasons why Africa was cololized in a rush. I believe it was because Africa had untouched resources both in terms of human and natural. And every country which believed in its power rushed to colonize Africa. Also, it could also be because Africans were relatively undeveloped which gave European an advantage and gave them an incentive to rush. Hope it helps!
