(i) Supply of raw materials : Colonies were considered essential to supply of natural resources and other essential goods.
(ii) To civilize the uncivilized people : Most of the European countries were of the opinion that the Afro-Asian people were uncivilized, and thought it was the mission of the ‘advanced’ European countries to bring the benefits of civilization to these backward people.
