Who Won and Who lost

Germany(Vishal and Chris) won in my opinion because they may not have had the most land but the amount of land itself doesn't matter what matters is the type of land. Germany had the richest agricultural land and the land with the most diamond mines and population. By gaining this Germany had land by the amount of land they had which got them in 2nd place for amount of land labor by taking over the most populated parts of Africa and capital by the diamond mines they had. But the Netherlands(Me) lost for sure because they had the least amount of land and and the little land they had had no resources, agriculture, and population therefore the Netherlands lost. Some people may say that Great Britain may have won because they had the most populaces areas and they had a lot of resources and money but if you think about their rivalries it was basically everybody. The Netherlands attempted to take over the areas of GB close but failed. Then France(Phil and KY) tried to take over the areas near them but since there were none they attacked Belgium (Cerys and KJ) so they could have better land. Portugal had no land near GB so they attacked no one. Spain was a country that attacked a great deal but they made no deals with many countries. One reason GB became so unpopular was because other countries were willing to give twice the amount of land for a little bit of theirs so everyone had conspiracies against them. Everyone thought that since the y had the Suez canal and tourism that they would negotiate the part that is now Libya. I was going for that part due to the oil in that part and i was willing to give thrice the amount of squares for that part.

Imperialism and England


This cartoon means that England took over the countries that the hands are on. Some of the main visual elements are the head with England written under it ans the arms and hands falling and grasping the countries. The main issue is how England was taking over all the countries
and becoming to powerful in Imperialism. Probably the author feels that England was to powerful and was taking over the countries for power. The author could have made the head more fierce looking and a whole monstrous body so it shows more of the wars and the cold hatred in England when they took over these countries. This cartoon has good contrast, repetition of the arms and countries,alignment, and proximity because every thing is grouped around England.
