Unique No: 567122

DUE 19 October 2024

, Question 1: What was the primary economic motivation for European powers
during the era of New Imperialism?
• Answer: b. Expansion of trade markets
o Explanation: During the era of New Imperialism (late 19th to early 20th
centuries), European powers were primarily driven by economic interests,
including the desire to expand trade markets, secure raw materials, and find
new territories for investment.
Question 2: Which of the following countries was NOT a major colonial power in
the 19th century?
• Answer: b. Japan
o Explanation: While Japan did become an imperial power, it was not a
colonial power in the 19th century like Britain, France, or Portugal. Japan's
empire expanded significantly in the early 20th century.
Question 3: Underdevelopment, according to Walter Rodney, is the absence of
development, since all people have development in one way or another.
• Answer: False
o Explanation: Walter Rodney, in How Europe Underdeveloped Africa, argues
that underdevelopment is not just the absence of development but a process
where African economies were deliberately exploited and impoverished
through European colonial practices.
Question 4: Many scholars argue that there was a change in the way nationalists
dealt with diversity by the middle of the 19th century.
• Answer: True
o Explanation: By the mid-19th century, nationalist movements often began
addressing the complexities of ethnic and cultural diversity within their own
populations, especially as ideas of nationhood and identity evolved.
Question 5: Which of the options describes the impact of the Industrial Revolution
on urbanization in the 19th century?
• Answer: b. The Industrial Revolution led to a massive shift from rural to urban
living as people moved to cities for work in factories.
o Explanation: The Industrial Revolution triggered rapid urbanization as people
flocked to cities in search of employment in burgeoning factories, leading to
significant social, economic, and environmental changes.
Question 6: During the latter part of the 19th century, the Congo Free State, under
the control of King Leopold II, was mostly known for the shocking tales of
exploitation of the African people there.
• Answer: True
