Answer:

Negative effects: Racial inequality, Africans were treated worse than whites. The Europeans colonized Africa mainly for their own economic growth. Natives were treated inferior. Ethic groups were separated.

Positive effects: knowledge from Europe to Africa

Ended practices such as human sacrifice

Provided organization that led to statehood

I do believe imperialism was beneficial for Europe as they gained more land and materials. Without imperialism, Africa wouldn't be the same right now as with cultural groups and regions.
