Imperialism

The French had mainly come to America in search of fur and fish. They had pretty good relations with the Native Americans, because they would constantly trade and fraternize with them.

The English -on the other hand, did not have good relations with the Native Americans. The English came to the Americas just to establish the colonies, they wanted the competition. Since the English held the world's best and largest navy, acquiring new lands would be to their advantage.

When Palestine was created is was already colonized.

In the year 73 BCE, the Romans conquered the Jewish land, Judea.

The Romans renamed Judea, Palestine. So when Palestine was created there was already millions of Jews living there.

The following are some basic facts on the British colonisation of New Zealand: * In December 1642, Dutch explorer Abel Tasman sighted a new land which he described as mountainous and covered in cloud in the south, but more barren in the north - this was New Zealand, named after the Dutch province of Zeeland. * New Zealand remained largely unknown until Captain James Cook arrived in 1769 and explored and circumnavigated the islands, charting the coastline extensively. * Following Cook's detailed report, the usual run of whalers, missionaries, and traders followed. * In 1840, Britain formally annexed the islands, and New Zealand's first permanent European settlement was established on 22 January 1840. * The Treaty of Waitangi made New Zealand a British colony. The Treaty was signed on 6 February 1840 by over 500 Māori chiefs of New Zealand and the British Governor William Hobson, representing the British Government. * With the signing of the Treaty, Governor Hobson declared British sovereignty over New Zealand, and the colony of New Zealand was formally proclaimed on 3 May 1840. * New Zealand was initially part of the Australian colony of New South Wales. It became a separate colony in 1841 and became self-governing in 1852. Dominion status was attained in 1907, and full independence was granted in 1931 and ratified by New Zealand in 1947.

Well, the Chinese Empire had different period of reign. For example, there were dynasties that ruled a period of time, and then fell, such as the Xia, Shang, Zhou, ect. So, in a sense, the empire didn't end because, afterward, it was replaced by a new family in power. And, today, it can be seen that China is still ruling, yet, with a different system, being that of Communist.

The Philippines came under US control as a result of the Spanish-American War. At that time, the US declared it had no interest in permanent colonization of the islands. At the time of World War 2 and the Japanese military expansion, the Philippines were well along the path to formal independence.

The imperialism of the United States in the late 1800s and early 1900s goes back to the idea of Manifest Destiny. It was the "destiny" of our nation to expand from border to border and sea to sea. Once the North American continent was "acquired" (physically, politically, and economically) it was only a "natural" step to seek influence abroad. The economic factors that supported imperialism included the need to obtain more natural resources for industrial development and the need for more markets to expand the industrial profit of the nation. Politically we considered ourselves a model for other nations and areas to admire. Politicians claimed that imperial ventures were simply a way for the US to take part in world affairs and not become too isolated. Trade between nations made the US an active imperialistic nation as well. The desire to spread our political and social ideals as well as missionary zeal also contributed to our imperialistic designs.

Colonialism can be defined as the policy or practice of aquiring full or partial political control over another country, occupying it with settlers, and exploiting it economically.

Roots of U.S. imperialism:

a) Political: U.S. wanted to compete with European imperialism and acquire colonies around the world.

b)Economic: 1880's; navel officers and business leaders convinced congers to build a modern navy to protect oversea trades/markets.

c)Cultural: U.S. wanted to spread Christianity and Democratic values.

(Apex) demonstrate their superiority to other countries on an international scale.

they wanted their ' fair share' of the trade and wealth available in Southeast Asia.

The US Frontier Wars officially ended in 1890 at the battle of Wounded Knee. The US was used to expanding, the men that had fought the "wars" needed a "reason for being" (a reason to exist), with the continent of the United States settled (in 1890), the US had to look elsewhere. That "elsewhere" was foreign adventures.

the practice of extending the power, control or rule by one country over areas outside its borders. its different from informal in that the imperialist power exercises complete control

The answer you are looking for is "France", but that is technically incorrect. Lebanon was a part of the Wilayet/Province of Beirut in the Ottoman Empire until it became a French Mandate in 1919. As opposed to a colony, the intent of forming a mandate was to "help a territory develop to the point where it would be capable of self-governance" whereas a colony was supposed to be occupied perpetually. Understandably, the Lebanese and the French disagreed about when Lebanon would be ready for French withdrawal.

A. The era of imperialism leading up to WWI

B. The era of imperialism that began in the mid-nineteenth century, as highly industrialized capitalist countries sought control of global resources and markets

C. The era of imperialism that first divides Africa

D. The era of imperialism that first divides Asia

E. None of these

All of those (except E.) are adequate descriptions of "New Imperialism", which was a period of colonial expansion in Africa and Asia-and its accompanying ideologies-by the European powers, the United States of America and the Empire of Japan during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

There was natural resources that were "wealth" to imperialist nations. The area was also a market for European products. With a weak Chinese government in power, it was easy for imperialists to take advantage of China and Southeast Asia.

The diseases that immigrants carried would be the deadliest factor that killed many Natives. Native Americans never came in contact with diseases that developed in the Old World because they were separated from Asia, Africa, and Europe when ocean levels rose following the end of the last Ice Age. Diseases like smallpox, measles, pneumonia, influenza, and malaria were unknown to the Native Americans until the Europeans brought these diseases over time to them. This triggered the largest population decline in all recorded history. Fifty percent of the Native American population had died of disease within twenty years.
