Question

The author of the article claims that: Imperializing other countries was justified and the duty of the European nations. Choose a quote from below that you feel most strongly supports this claim and explain why it is effective evidence to the author's claim? Quote 1: It entails a profound action on a people and a territory, providing the inhabitants with some education and regular justice, teaching them the division of labour and the uses of capital when they are ignorant of these things. Quote 2: Nor is it natural and just that they there accumulate the marvels of science, the arts and civilization, that they see the rate of interest fall more each day for lack of good investment opportunities, while they leave perhaps half the world to little groups of ignorant, ineffectual men who are like feeble children…or to exhausted populations, without energy, without direction, who may be compared to old men

Answer 1

Quote 1

Step-by-step explanation:

As stated in the question above, the article shows that Europe should rather govern other nations through imperialism, in addition, the article places imperialism as a good thing and a European obligation with more fragile regions. In this case, Quote 1 is the most ideal to serve as a basis for this statement, as it shows positive results that imperialism causes in the dominated nations, as these results were caused by the European dominion.
