Imperialism

Imperialism brought along many changed. The motivations of imperialism were based upon three things gold, glory, and god. Gold was based upon the countries natural resources and labor. Glory was based upon making your own country stronger and wealthier. God was based upon converting people into Christianity. The way many countries achieved these things was either through war or a meeting where the leaders from all of the countries would come together and come to a solution. Countries main ambitions generally changed the way of many peoples’ lives. Most of the changes made were negative ones. They were negative in both long and short terms. Short terms because people were forced into labor, long term because discrimination began. These changes suited the wealthier and white people while the poorer blacks hated it. As you can see imperialism was great for some yet horrible for others.
