European Colonization DBQ Documents

For the 300 years between 1500 and 1800, European nations traded for slaves, gold, and ivory along the west coast of Africa, but they did not go deeply into the continent. In the 1800s this changed as European explorers pushed their way into the interiors of western and central Africa. By the 1880s Africa was under full assault as European nations competed with one another for control of the continent. This DBQ takes a look at this quest for colonies and asks what was the primary driving force behind it.

Before writing, the class will go over the attached documents to help you and your peers better formulate your arguments as to what the motivating factors were for the European colonization of Africa.

By the 1880s Africa was under full assault as European nations competed with one another for control of the continent. This DBQ takes a look at this quest for colonies and asks what was the primary driving force behind it.

This short background brings us to the question asked by this DBQ. For more than three centuries Europeans had avoided the African interior. Now, powers like England, France, and Germany showed a fresh interest in getting and holding large pieces of the African continent. But why this new interest? More specifically, in the late 19th Century, what was the driving force behind European imperialism in Africa?

Please answer the above question with 2-3 paragraphs. You should cite the documents in your answer and should have at least two citations in each paragraph.

European Colonies in Africa

In West Africa, wars among African peoples and the damaging effects of the slave trade had undermined long-established kingdoms and city-states. Newer African states were not strong enough to resist the Western onslaught. Many Africans lived in small communities with no strong, centralized kingdom to protect them.

Trading States of East Africa

Early civilizations often formed near rivers or larger bodies of water. The East African civilizations were no different. The Nile River and the Red Sea made East Africa an ideal location for settlement.

African Traditions

In the last lesson, you read about East African societies and cultures. The West African empires of Ghana, Mali, and Songhai had organized societies with unique cultures of their own. There were large empires, but also cities, towns, and villages. Throughout the empires, societies had complex, family-based relationships. “Kings may come and go,” observed a popular saying from Mali, “but the family endures.”

Analyze the Wealth of Mansa Musa and Mali

In 1324 CE, a caravan of as many as 60,000 people left Niani, the old capital of Mali in West Africa. They were heading to the Muslim holy city of Mecca, nearly 4,000 miles away. The leader of this journey was the ruler of Mali, Mansa Musa. The epic hajj, or pilgrimage, would spread the African king's name far and wide. This DBQ asks you to envision the hajj and determine what evidence exists that illustrates the immense wealth of Mansa Musa and the Malian Empire.

Before writing, the class will go over the attached documents to help you and your peers better analyze the evidence as it relates to Mansa Musa and Mali’s wealth.

African Nations Win Independence

Once it became clear that the major powers of Europe would withdraw from the continent, new African nations had to start planning for independence. With the rapid withdrawal of European forces and the legacy of artificial colonial borders, the decolonization period was fraught with chaos and hardship.
