توضيح
The purpose of colonisation was to serve as a source of inexpensive labour and natural resources. Most colonists had faced difficult lives in Britain, Ireland, Scotland or Germany. They came to Africa to escape poverty, warfare, political turmoil, famine and disease. They believed colonial life offered new opportunities.
