**__Great Britain and Imperialism  __**
====Britain was a very strong and powerful industrial nation. After the Industrial Revolution Great Britain, began to colonize other nations for natural resources and new marketing opportunity. Great Britain needed more supplies to expand and hold their economy. Britain's demands for goods began to increase rapidly and to keep up with the demand Britain needed more natural resources. Britain also believed in mercantilism and colonizing new lands meant they could also sell goods to them. The Berlin Conference in 1884-85 was a meeting to lay down the rules for the partition of Africa. The European nations that attended this meeting could care less about the ethnicity boundries that were set up before the partition of Africa. No African rulers' were invited to the conference. Ethiopia and Liberia were free of European control. ====
