Explains The Rise And Fall Of Empires

During the mid-19th century, France and Britain shifted the focus of their colonial aspirations from North America to Asia. Gradually, Asian emperors and local elites found themselves in a battle to retain their authority as these European nations determined to expand their power across the world. Over roughly 100 years, France and Britain forged vast Asian empires by conquering territories and subjugating local people; however, this control ended during the 20th century as local citizens were able to expel their foreign rulers and establish independent nations.
In this task, you will examine the motivations behind the French and British colonization in two specific Asian countries during the 19th century, as well as the methods France and Britain used to establish colonies. You will also examine the factors (such as economic and political developments impacting the empires) that led to the end of French and British colonization in Asia.
