Negative Effects of the New Imperialism


Their where many negative effects of the new imperialism. One effect was slavery, has country would conquer an area they would often take the survivors and make them slaves for them selves or they would sell them to make a profit. When a country would conquer another country their would be many people that died in the taking over. Many people would die because most the time a war would break out between the attacking and defending countries. Another negative effect would be that many cultures and religions were decimated, or destroyed, in the battles.

  1. Second half of what you've written here is accurate. First part is problematic and reflects a lack of clarity about the idea that what we've been calling the "New" imperialism refers to a specific era in the late 19th century, when, for a variety of reasons, Europeans were no longer engaged in the slave trade.
