- The European colonists had more soldiers compared to native Africa
- The european colonists had more modern weapons compared to native African
- The european colonists controlled the trade routes from Africa and its surrounding.
All of those factors above basically forced the native Africans to succumb to the demand of the European colonists, which make them able to freely taken their resources and enslaved their people.
