The document summarizes the political, economic, and cultural motivations and methods of the New Imperialism between 1869-1914. European powers and the United States used military and economic dominance to bring Africa, Asia, and Latin America under their control as colonies and spheres of influence. They exploited these regions for their natural resources and markets while imposing Western colonial administrations. Indigenous populations resisted colonization in various ways but ultimately saw their societies transformed by European domination of the global economy and environment.
