What made Europe a leader in uniting the world into a single organism? What are the consequences of her colonial policy?
Strong European powers (England, France, Germany, Portugal, Italy, Spain) pursued a policy of conquest, as a result of which they seized foreign lands, on which they organized colonies. European colonies existed in Africa, South and North America, India and other parts of the planet, which made it possible to combine them into one single organism.
The consequences of colonial policy: a decrease in the indigenous population of the colonies, the imposition of European values and culture (including European languages, currencies) with a parallel loss of local traditions, a large flow of emigrants to Europe, the development of industry, agriculture in the occupied territories, the construction of factories and cities.
