Answer:
C. Loss of natural resources
Explanation:
Imperialism in Africa determined the division of the continent between the European powers of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. For several centuries the continent was exploited by foreign colonists and to this day suffers the consequences of the interventions of yore.
The entry of European countries into the scenario of domination of the African continent has caused immense fragmentation of native communities and cultures, exploitation has been guided by interests linked to natural wealth - such as gold, copper and diamonds - and by strategic regions located near the Mediterranean Sea for privileges in maritime trade.
