Western Powers Rule Southeast Asia, and Imperialism

Imperialism began to spread whole Europe during the Industrial Revolution. Imperialism had three primary motivations. They were for gold, glory and gods. Imperialism happened because of the Industrial Revolution and from western countries, such as England and France looked for more lands and labor. So they choose four big different places. They were southeast Asia, India, Two sides of Africa. Even they are different places, European all looked for these four places because they had lot of natural resources that will support the making the products, such as sugar, coffee, cocoa, rubber and fruit. Then it was easy for them to treat the workers because they were lot cheaper, eat less and work hard. Not only they made products, they also spread their culture like how do they live and it cause the changes of better schooling in Southeast Asia (which was actually good effect). Also plantation and farming on each four places cause growing of population. Sometimes, wars appeared in certain times and places because ideas from Western and Southeast Asia were different and made violence. As you might noticed, All these four places got common or simular motivations, methods, and changes during the Imperialism.
