Question

many people believe that the making of maps by the colonial powers was a more powerful tool for exploitation and control of the colonies than guns .do you agree?why?

Answer 1

Answer:

• During the late eighteenth century, the British Kingdom went on an uncalled for exploration of the world with the intention of ruling the countries they went to, by the early twentieth century half of the world was colonies by the British Empire and they dominated the world.
• So, if one would show the colonised map of the early twentieth century their domination would look unmatched so their maps was more of a tool for exploitation than guns.
