What is the policy of obtaining and occupying colonies to form an empire?
Answer (2)
Imperialism or colonialism is the strategy or policy which states used to occupy territories which became known as colonies to establish an empire. This policy was commonly used by European powers in the Americas, Africa, and Asia.
Imperialism is the policy of extending a country's power through colonization and dominance, involving European nations primarily from the 15th to the 20th centuries. It was motivated by economic advantages, national pride, and a perceived duty to civilize non-European peoples. The consequences included significant exploitation of colonized areas and transformative impacts on global relations.
