Post Conference Analysis (France)

As France, I thought we did a pretty decent job by taking most of the major ports. Although Britain took Suez Canal as well as Gibraltar, they were forced to take at least three inches of farmland. Therefore, it allowed us to take the remaining ports. I think Britain won because by taking the Suez Canal and Gibraltar, they can basically control every trade that is going through Africa. I think Germany lost in the "scramble" because Britain and France took every vital part of Africa and they were forced to take the average leftover lands.
I think colonizing and making boundaries throughout Africa will bring about a very negative effect on African culture. The African tribes interact with each other and by splitting them up, their culture becomes destroyed. Different countries were formed as a result. There is still an effect seen today in Africa because now there are not as many African language speakers as there were before.
