  • Summary

  • On this day in 1885, the final act of the Berlin Conference was signed by European countries. It divided Africa like an apple pie, with no African at the table. While many countries got their share, the biggest winner of the conference was Leopold II, king of Belgium. This day marks the start of the systematic exploitation of colonies by the European masters.
