3 Reasons why imperialism helped the world

1. Imperialism helped the world because it helped bigger more powerful countries fuel their revolutions with resources from less developed countries or nations.  It helped the nations get more modernized and also set them up to become more useful. 

2."All great nations in the fullness of their strength have desired to set their mark upon barbarian lands and those who fail to participate in this great rivalry will pay a pitable role in time to come." -German historian Heinrich von Treitschke.

3.Europe also by imperialism was spreading modernization in technology because they were so much father technologically advanced than other nations especially when conquering parts of Africa.  European nations had a huge upper hand on the African's.  The African's stood no chance with outdated weapons against Europes machine guns.
