Abstract | The nineteenth century was a period of unparalleled imperial expansion. Despite the magnitude of earlier developments in previous centuries, they were overtaken and eventually eclipsed in the nineteenth century; by the close of the century, exploration had been overtaken by partition, and partition, in turn, by occupation. This chapter traces these phases of imperial expansion in European history. |
