Imperialism Case Study
In history, Imperialism was a foreign policy practiced by various nations, particularly
European countries, the United States, and few Asian counties which enforced their political,
economic or cultural authority over another country or region[ CITATION Bec20 \l 1033 ]. One
of the key elements in the success of imperialism was the exploitation of colonial resources and
indigenous. The exploitation was a result of the widespread ethnocentrism of the time and was

West, extending Western influence on Africa and Asia[ CITATION Dui15 \l 1033 ].

they colonized other counties, take over the lands, divide and rule, apartheid laws, ethnocentrism,
