    Obviously, they benefitted from it, but they were all rich well before colonization.

    Thing is China is worse and they taking USA spot

    China definitely not worse than America, France is probably the only coountry that's worse than America when it comes to imposing it's imperial power.

    Well up til now, China has been very reluctant of intervening in other countries affairs and their trade has been less exploitative in comparison with how the West has operated up until now.

    Colonialism and imperialism go hand in hand, can't have an empire without colonies

  • The arab spring is a perfect example for modern colonialism (neo-colonialism)

    Not really no

    They got rich thanks to the industrial revolution and there is no correlation with wealth now and colonies of the past.

    Portugal had one of the biggest empires at the time and they invented the atlantic slave trade but now look where they are.

    A few european countries are still rich thanks to neocolonialism though. If France lost its power over western africa it would become a third world country in an instant

    You got it wrong. The Portuguese ceased to be a colonial power comparable to the British and the French by the turn of the 19th century. So that does not really hold.

    As far as the industrial revolution is concerned, countries still relied on looted imports and labour from the colonies in order to sustain themselves in an economic transition where specialisation was underway. In fact, the industrial revolution was the kernel for the Scramble Over Africa and their European expansion in Asia. Before then, the colonisers had little impact in the colonies, but after then the Europeans started to grip harder. Why? Because the industrial revolution led to population growth, which entailed more demand for goods and that in itself led to more profit for the colonisers.

    Northern countries never colonized (Norwage for example)
    I should've put a '','' between them

    This is inaccurate. The Danes have set up show in Africa. The East Danish Company is rarely talked about, because Denmark never wanted to address its colonial legacy

    Industrial revolution started before colonialism. It instruem that they have been leeching off of Africa and propping themselves up off the backs of us since the 1870s tho

    it didn’t start before colonialism. India had been a colony since mid 18th century. South Africa was colonised in 1652.

    Could be because of their ships and ports during the height of mercantilism, but the East India Company had the biggest influence across Africa and Asia
