"The Scramble for Africa"

The main Europeans nations involved in the scramble was Germany,Spain,Portugal,etc. They was in Africa for trade and for slavery.They had weapons such as machine guns,pistols. The Africans had spears.So there was no chance of them winning. This effected the Africans by taking there freedom away.They have been sold like product. On a large ship going here and there getting there names changed. They have been working for free cleaning.Some was raped by there owners. To me the term scramble for Africa means all the Europeans getting together and scrambling around Africa and ambushing them
