The Scramble For Africa
I believe the quote "The Scramble for Africa" describes the time when multiple countries were fighting over African lands. The Berlin Conference helped decide which countries got what land in Africa. The Africans had no say in this and were not invited to the Berlin Conference. They used Africa for its resources. The land was divided and it is show i a map in our text books.

i agree with what you said. I did not mention the Berlin Conference and that was a big point that i forgot to mention. You made an important point and as did I about how the European countries came into Africa.
