Kevin Bright · Answer 1

The scramble for Africa really began due to European political control.

Explanation:

The Scramble for Africa was a time from the 1880s to 1900 A. D during which rapid colonization by the European powers to control the inland of the continent had taken place. There have been many factors that have contributed significantly to the Scramble for Africa, several of which were linked to developments in Europe rather than in Africa. The call to end the slave trade, the boom in exploration, capitalist dreams, military innovations, and competition among the European nations to expand their respective overseas empires.
