WHAT IS IT?
When European powers
extended their control
across Africa and Asia
(1850-1914).
CAUSES
Rifles, Steamboats, Railroads,
Telegraph and new medicine
allow Europeans to build
empires anywhere.
CAUSES
Europeans compete for
global empires with new
competitors (Italy,
Germany).
CAUSES
Desire natural
resources, new
markets and to
“civilize” Africa and
Asia.
AFRICA
Scramble for Africa
(1870-1914): European
nations race to get
precious resources like
diamonds and gold.
AFRICA
Britain wants control
of Suez Canal to
quickly reach India.
AFRICA
Berlin Conference:
Divided Africa across
boundaries still fought
over today.
ASIA
European technology
and economies
weakened China and
India.
ASIA
Britain formally takes
over India and builds
up country in 1857.
ASIA
Opium Wars (1839-
1845): China loses to
British, divided into
“spheres of influence”
Take up the White Man's burden—
Send forth the best ye breed—
Go bind your sons to exile
To serve your captives' need;
To wait in heavy harness,
On fluttered folk and wild—
Your new-caught, sullen peoples,
Half-devil and half-child.
Take up the White Man's burden—
In patience to abide,
To veil the threat of terror
And check the show of pride;
By open speech and simple,
An hundred times made plain
To seek another's profit,
And work another's gain.
Take up the White Man's
burden--The savage wars of
peace—
Fill full the mouth of Famine
And bid the sickness cease;
And when your goal is nearest
The end for others sought,
Watch sloth and heathen Folly
Bring all your hopes to
nought.
Source: Rudyard Kipling, The White Man's
Burden (1899)
