I don't get what's "wrong" with Imperialism (part 3)
More examples:
1. Civilization
One of the most common positive effects of imperialism is civilization. Under-developed and developing countries gain access to new technologies. Since their people live in mostly smaller nations, the bigger nations provide them with technologies and civilization. Part of it includes reforming the educational systems and building social amenities. Let us not forget that the record says civilization started in Egypt (Africa). It is safe to say that civilization in most African countries was through the help of imperialism.
2. Improved Healthcare service
Not until imperialism came to some smaller nations did they never have access to proper healthcare services. The colonial masters built hospitals and brought science manufactured drugs not only for themselves but also for the countries they ruled.
Many of the older generations in some parts of Africa only knew about concoctions for healing. An obvious example of the impact on healthcare services is the eradication process of malaria in Africa. Malaria at one point in the 80s and 90s was a deadly disease that killed many. Moreover, this became a thing of the past when the bigger countries stepped in.
3. Improved Agricultural production
Imperialism brought about improved agricultural production through advanced fertilization and farming methods. On-farm activities improved through their help and post-harvest processing became more effective. By this, many ideas were harnessed. Crops become viable and healthy for instant consumption or further processing.
4. Basic Social Amenities
Many smaller nations didn’t know about electricity until the colonial masters came. The representatives of the bigger nation had to build roads, railways, street lights, drainage systems, etc. since they will be living there for some time.
5. Improved environment and state of living
The presence of the colonial masters helps to improve the state of living. Dressings were improved, and proper human and environmental sanitation improved.
6. Improved Defense and proper law enforcement
The colonial masters helped to build borders and strengthen their space from other countries. Constitutions were made to enforce the law among the people. The law enforcement agencies such as the police and the armies were reformed. It also helped smaller countries who have no idea how to make constitutions or how to govern a country.
