Imperialism Project

It was to show the countries that the Europeans conquered in parts of the Americas, and Africa. It was also to show the divisions of the countries in those continents. We also did it to show the shipping routes and what they traded to each other. I learned how many countries were conquered by various European countries such as Great Britain and Spain. I also learned things they traded such as Gold and Silver. I also learned that Great Britain traded China Opium to get tea because China wouldn't open up for trade with foreign countries and so they traded Opium since the Chinese would get addicted and eventually traded tea. This then led to the Opium Wars and Great Britain won easily.
