Berlin conference was called by the German Chancellor Ottoman Bismarck, in order to agree to divide the African continent into European governed colonies. About three fourths of the African country came under the supremacy and dominance of European powers.
The main aim for the Europeans to colonize in Africa was the bountiful natural resources and weak states in Africa which led to internal conflicts. This paved way for the British and other European allies to establish their supremacy in the country.
The unethical land divide caused the people of different tribes to stay in the same area with whom they could not get along well. This led to civil wars in Africa.
