TS: There have been more problems in the struggle for natural rights because of unintended dictatorships.

Cara McConaughey Block G

Thesis: Although the struggle for natural rights caused more progress due to emerging ideas of equality, ultimately it caused more problems due to loss of original culture, and political violence.

F1: Assimilation was a form of Imperialism in which a stronger nation forces a weaker nation to adopt its culture and lifestyle. European nations forced their ways of life into Africa, which was a region full of natural resources.

A1: This was important because it led to an increase in nationalism, as natives felt that they were being taken from the life as they had known. This caused violence and revolts.

F2: Imperialism is when a stronger nation "adopts" or takes control of a weaker nation politically, economically, or socially.

A2: This was important because the weaker nation resulted in a loss of their original culture. This sparked tribal revolts, and native tensions.

F3: Power-hungry rulers changed society for numerous nations. Napoleon took rule in France to restore order and control, ruling as a dictator. He made the people obedient to is ideas of rule.

A3: This was important because the people no longer had a say. Whatever economy, government, or ideas their ruler had, the people were required to obey.
