, 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

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.
