Competition for lands in Africa led to strong rivalries and aggressive actions between European countries

Every time native Africans revolted against the European country that was controlling them, another European country would come to the aid of the Africans who were revolting

Rebellions and revolts by native Africans severely damaged the European countries' economy which led to European countries turning on each other and fighting

European colonies in Africa angered the United States, so the United States began to attack European countries who had colonies in Africa

The colonies were valuable in resources and markets

The more colonies a European power had, the more prestigious and wealthy they appeared

European countries wanted to spread their ideas and ways of doing things to other places

All of the answer choices are correct

Imperialism led to tense feelings over land and this tension made small problems between countries seem much worse.  Tension led to fear of other countries attacking.  Fear made countries build up their armies and form alliances for protection.  

Imperialism led to extreme feelings of  nationalism or pride in one's own country.   The feeling of nationalism made European countries very aggressive towards each other.  The aggressive behavior made non-European nations nervous and in an effort to protect themselves, these other nations formed an alliance and threatened to declare war on European nations with empires. 

Native African people finally got fed up with Europeans trying to take their land, so they threatened to declared war on all European nations who had empires in Africa if they did not leave Africa alone.

When clashes in European powers began to impact the world economy, each European nation quickly scrambled to make sure they were not blamed and tried to divert the world's attention onto another European country.  

France and Britain were both shocked by Germany's show of force and aggression in the Moroccan Crisis and recognized the need to stick together in the face of a common enemy.

France and Britain were afraid that Morocco would declare war on one or both of them because Morocco had been ruled by both Britain and France at one time.  So they decided to help each other out.

Great Britain and France had always been allies so they where always willing to negotiate between each other no matter the circumstances.

Because British and French troops both rough and died trying to win Morocco from Germany, they felt a brotherly feelings towards each other.
