3-2-1 Summary

3 Things I Learned:
1. I learned that the Suez Canal is just as important to the world today as it was when it was first built.
2. I learned all the different ways an empire could control a colony, colonies, protectorates, the sphere of influence, and economic imperialism.
3. Even though France controlled more countries in Africa, Britian was much more powerful there then them because Britian had more land and they controlled the important colonies.

2 Things I Found Interesting:
1. Thomas Edison patented over 1,000 inventions.
2. Queen Elizabeth was England's longest serving monarch.

1 Question I Still Have:
1. How was Ethiopia able to stay independent during Imperialism?
