@Destinymasha weren't the Jim Crow Laws and others solely from the Americas? The question mentions the Europeans.. :o

Ahh, you're correct; thank you very much for pointing that out !! n_n

But seeing that imperialism literally means for one country to control or rule another through force, (and that is what the European nations did to the continent of Africa; including the era of slavery and the slave trade) I would think the answer would still be choice C ~
