Evaluate the impact of European conquests in the last half of the nineteenth century.

 

The European conquests made big changes like modernization of Russia through peer pressure. Or the shaping of Italy and Germany through conquest. The biggest change was revolutionary weapons and that led to conflict with Russia for conquest of Persia. Europe was definitely in a time of conflict and industrialization. Europe was trying to extend outward it’s boundaries and it had to deal with conflict and other world powers trying to extend their boundaries. Europe was also going through industrialization, revolutions and new ideas like social Darwinism and impressionism. The most dramatic changes were in art like the impressionist movement, the post-impressionist movement, and science like longer life spans, less disease and even more like the discovery of radium. Long story short, European conquest made a major science, art and medicine leap.
