Positive Effects of the New Imperialism

It is very hard to say any good came from such a brutal event. But it is important to try to at least see the brightest shade of black in this situation.

The only real effect Imperialism had was progression for some countries or regions. The bigger and more powerful countries were able to bring new technology and ideas with them and some countries were able to modernize. It did eventually lead to better medical care, better hygiene, and things like that.

All in all, however, Imperialism benefited a much smaller percentage of people than it hurt.
