Imperialism

I read a poem written on imperialism. It talked about some of the major reasons for imperialism. It said that natural resources and economic factors were the biggest reasons for imperialism. It also talked about how the people didn't necessarily want to be colonized. Another thing that the poem expressed was that even if the people who were colonizing thought it was a good thing it didn't necessarily mean that the people living there felt the same way. The poem also questioned why other countries didn't help prevent smaller countries from being colonized.
