Question 10 • World History

Which was a political effect of European imperialism in Africa?

Answer
A
Most manufactured goods were sent to Africa from Europe.
B
Little experience was provided to Africans in self-government.
C
Europeans owned most of the mines and plantations.
D
Christianity spread across the African continent.

Explanation

European colonial governments usually kept political power in European hands rather than allowing Africans to govern themselves. As a result, Africans had little experience with self-government when colonial rule ended. The other choices describe economic effects or cultural and religious change, not a political effect.
