Answer 2

Answer:

"Partition of power" in the "African region" during the "19th century" is known as "Paper partition".

Explanation:

Different European countries would give gifts to the leaders of an African clan and get them to sign treaties. These treaties were a total fraud as they could be manipulated by the European country, who had got it passed, to benefit them only. They would also claim the entire region of the African clans sometimes and pass these regions to other countries when the need arise. This was done without the "consent" of the "chieftains of the clans".
