Imperialism is a country that dominates another country by political, economic, or cultural life. This imperialism during the late 19th and early 20th century was "new" because Europe became a huge power. From Europe's great economic and political strength they were inspired to go further with their expansion. The strong centralized governed nation-states became about and from that they were greatly influenced by the Industrial Revolution.
The "New Imperialism" came bout for many different reasons. Starting off, the economy was enriched from wanting natural resources to sell in new markets. The people also saw colonies as places for the European population to grow. The political and military interests of the people came from trips around the world for bases so they could gain islands and harbors. Nationalism came into the scene because of countries competing with each other. The countries thought that being a global empire would increase a nation's fame. With the blessings of the Western civilization, medicine, law, and Christian religion came forth. Racial superiority was famous in the West and Darwin's belief in natural selection was related to human society.
