A. Millions of Africans died as a result of the Western colonization. This is because Africa was a very wanted territory and many countries fought for land in Africa. They didn't care about or consider Africa's people. They did anything to gain land.

The correct answer should be A. Millions of Africans died as a result of the Western colonization.

Just think of the slave trade and of all the wars Europeans waged in Africa and everything is clear.
