Can you describe the changes that occurred in Africa from 1880 to 1914 for the Ottoman Empire, France, Britain, and the Boers?


Rate This Answer

The Ottoman Empire, based in modern Turkey, had lasted for hundreds of years. In 1830, Greece won its independence and Serbia won the right to govern itself. Russia hoped to win control of the Black Sea so it could ship grain across the Mediterranean Sea. It fought a war with the Ottomans in the 1850s, but lost when Britain and France joined against it.
