Chapter 23 Overview
In Chapter 23, the main concept is imperialism, mainly that of the Europeans. The idea of manifest destiny was a main motivator throughout this time period, and many European states competed to gain the most territory. This resulted in the Scramble for Africa, the Great Game, the Monroe Doctrine, and the Berlin Conference. European imperialism has shaped most of our world today, and has had a massive impact on the political policies and territories that are still relevant in our everyday life.
In this chapter, we will explore specifically English imperialism in India, Spanish and American influence in Latin and South America, The Scramble for Africa, and the impact of Rudyard Kipling's poem in the Philippines.
