southeastern Tanganyika, and it lasted for two

Effects that colonialism and imperialism had on
Germany and Namibia were that the economy grew
and the country gained money and power. Trade was
also an effect, when the ivory was sold. This
happened because they got the ivory cheap, and
sold it for much more money, therefore creating a
large profit margin. Germany also got other
countries involved when the railroad was built,
making trade easier and faster.This also brought
in other products as well, such as rubber and
coffee.

Namibias people were treated terribly and
unfairly. Because of racist attitudes towards the
Africans, Germans personally punished them for
things such as debt. The Germans created the laws
and the Africans could not have a say in the
laws. The African people lost their culture,
pride, and freedom.

The two main tribes of Africa were Mambo and the
Hereros (Samuel Herero wes the chief of the
Herero). The two tribes joined the Namas (their
rivals) and fought the Germans in a war of 1904.
They had to fight, because they had lost land and
their freedom and they believed united as tribes
together, they could fight back.

people and destroyed big portions of the land
