The New Imperialism and the Scramble for Africa
Starting in the 1870s, European powers rapidly expanded their colonial empires in Africa and Asia during a period historians call the New Imperialism, driven by competition for raw materials, markets, and national prestige, along with new technologies that made conquest easier. At the 1884-85 Berlin Conference, European powers set the rules for claiming African territory and recognized some existing claims, without any African representation at the table; the continent's actual colonial borders were then carved out over the following decades through further conquest and negotiation among the same powers.
