The correct answer is:

D. Region B

In western Africa, european inducement for imperialism arose from the demand for raw materials to which European consumers had grown accustomed and upon which European industry had grown dependent, such as rubber. At the sametime, the gold and diamond-rich southern Africa had strategic value in securing the flow of overseas trade.
