Section 14.1

5. Motives for Imperialism
1. Economic – European nations were looking for raw materials (rubber, oil, and tin), they also sought new markets to sell their manufactured goods
British Factory in Canton, China

6. Motives for Imperialism
2. Political – European nations were rivals they tried to gain colonies in order to gain an advantage over their rivals – some believed that a nation’s greatness was tied to the vastness of their empire

8. Motives for Imperialism

9. What do you notice about the picture?

10. Forms of Colonial Control
1. Indirect rule – If a colonial power could accomplish their goals through cooperation with local rulers or political elites – In these cases they left the local leadership in place – indirect rule was preferred because it gave easy access to natural resources and cost the government less (fewer officials had to be trained and sent to the colony)

11. Forms of Colonial Control
2. Direct rule – If local leaders resist colonial rule the leaders are removed and replaced by officials of the colonial power (sometimes called mother country) – this method of rule was much more expensive and oppressive

12. Colonial Takeover in Southeast Asia
Great Britain – Colonized Singapore and Burma
France – Colonized Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam – eventually making Vietnam a French PROTECTORATE (political unit that depends on another government for its protection)

13. New Imperialism
Imperialism – The extension of a nation’s power over other lands, this was not new – However, the new imperialism that was practiced in the late 19th century was different, in the past nations simply set up trading posts now they wanted direct control over vast territories

14. Exit Slip
Write a diary entry as if you were a imperial power attempting to colonize a foreign land. Explain your reasons for choosing that location (economic, political, social, etc.) and whether you would have direct or indirect rule and why.

15. Recap Causes of Imperialism
Economic Motives
The Industrial Revolution created an insatiable demand for raw materials and new markets.
Nationalism
European nations wanted to demonstrate their power and prestige to the world.
Balance of Power
European nations were forced to acquire new colonies to achieve a balance with their neighbors and competitors.
White Man's Burden
The Europeans’ sense of superiority made them feel obligated to “civilize the heathen savages” they encountered.

16. D. Imperialism in Southeast Asia and the Pacific
1.What resource is found on the Island of Borneo?
2. Which Southeast Asian island was rich in timber?

17. E. Imperialism Exit Slip
Hypothesize the future conflicts that may arise due to the competition for territory

20. Colonial Takeover in Southeast Asia
Thailand was the only Southeast Asian nation to be able to avoid both British and French occupation – because the two kings that ruled Thailand promoted western learning (making them seem more civilized) and had friendly relations with the major European powers

21. Colonial Takeover in Southeast Asia
United States – After defeating the Spanish fleet in the bay of Manila in the Philippines the U.S. colonized the islands (for strategic reasons, it was a good jump-off point to trade with China)

22. Colonial Regimes in Southeast Asia

23. Colonial Regimes in Southeast Asia

24. Colonial Regimes in Southeast Asia
The Western colonial powers promoted western education, taught native people about the democratic process – However, they did not give native people political rights (the right to vote) because they feared they would ask for full participation and eventually independence

25. Colonial Regimes in Southeast Asia
Colonial powers did not want their colonies to develop their own industries – they stressed exportation of raw materials and needed the native population for labor
The only real benefit to the colonies were railroads, highways, and education 

26. Resistance to Colonial Rule
At first, resistance to colonial rule only came from the ruling class (mad that they were not in charge anymore) – Later, resistance came through peasant revolts (many angry that they were pushed off their land to make large plantations)

27. Resistance to Colonial Rule
New forms of resistance – based on nationalism, led by a new class of native peoples educated in the western style who understood western institutions and values – at first, they only wanted to protect their economies or religious beliefs (culture), but as it became clear this was not going to happen the resistance moved toward independence movements
