The Scramble for Africa begin when France moved into Tunis with Bismarck's encouragement. It all started in 1881. After years of abandonment the Europeans finally started to notice Africa. I don't personally think this was a good thing considering the slave trade. But for Europe it was wonderful in many ways. Europe quickly grabbed up Africa's land. This was the Scramble for Africa. Its called this because different parts of Europe rushed to get power over African valleys and land. Some parts of Europe such as France and Briton. Personally I'm surprised that it took the Europeans so long to notice how variable Africa's land is.
