The answer is Option D) Some were angered because other nations took over their colonies.
Post-1900, Europe began to introduce new styles of colonial rule in Africa for the purpose of effort to increase revenues collection from the colonies.
These included grabbing land from African people and handing over it to the growing number of Europeans coming in the colonies.
The other issues are the introduction of taxes like the hut and poll tax that forced Africans to work for European settlers free of cost.
Africans were forced to work for Europeans as a free service in order to pay these taxes.
Because the new taxes had to be paid in cash and not as cattle or crops as practiced before.
