In The Rubber Coils

People colonize other countries because it makes their empire stronger, because they think they have the right to and because they think that they have to teach them Christianity. Exploitation happens very often when one country colonizes another. It happened so often because they think that it is the only way for the colonizers to get what they want out of the colonized nation and people. Another reason that exploitation happened so often was because the locals did not know better than to give them half of their food or half of their income. In these ways the Europeans were able to guarantee that they would be in a situation where they could only gain wealth.
