Answer 1

The Industrial Revolution helped lead to European imperialism through factors such as the need for raw materials and food, overcrowded cities, and unemployed factory workers. Europeans offered various justifications for imperialism, including claims of superior culture and religion. They intervened in China to open ports for trade and Latin Americans were inspired by the creation of nation-states in France and America.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Industrial Revolution helped lead to European imperialism for various reasons.

1. One reason is that European industrialists needed access to raw materials to use in their factories (option D).
2. Additionally, as industry replaced agriculture, Europeans had to import food from overseas (option C).
3. The desire for new places to settle due to overcrowded European cities (option B) and the migration of unemployed factory workers (option A) also played a role in European imperialism.

Europeans offered various justifications for their imperial policies, including the belief that they had a superior culture and religion (option A) and the intention to introduce industrialization into the colonies (option C). They also sought new technology from other societies (option B) and had a higher population than other continents (option D).

European powers wanted to accomplish different goals by intervening in China, but one of the main goals was to open Chinese ports to trade (option B). They also wanted to stop the sale of opium (option A).

The inspiration for Latin Americans to fight for independence was primarily influenced by the creation of nation-states in France and America (option A). The successful independence movement of Vietnam and Laos (option B), the uprising of the Chinese against the British (option C), and the opening up of trade in Asian ports (option D) were not the main inspirations for Latin American independence.
