		The end of the old colonial and slave systems were accompanied by the adoption of free trade, culminating in the repeal of the Corn Laws and Navigation Acts in the 1840s.
		Between 1885 and 1914 Britain took nearly 30% of Africa's population under her control, compared to 15% for France, 9% for Germany, 7% for Belgium and only 1% for Italy: Nigeria alone contributed 15 million subjects, more than in the whole of French West Africa or the entire German colonial empire.

	How Europe Underdeveloped Africa. Walter Rodney 1973
		Colonialism increased the dependence of Africa on Europe in terms of the numbers of persons brought into the money economy and in terms of the number of aspects of socio-economic life in Africa which derived their existence from the connection with the metropole.
		To clinch the argument that colonialism had a deleterious effect on the African as a physical (and hence mental) entity, it is useful to point to those African peoples who until today have managed to maintain their own pattern of existence in so far as food is concerned.
		In the little-known Spanish colony of Guinea (Rio Muni), the small amount of education given to Africans was based on eliminating the use of local languages by the pupils and on instilling in their hearts ‘the holy fear of God’.

		Until 1702 he was appointed by the governor, after which he was commissioned by the Crown.
		By the Constitution the governor was required to do the appointing with the "advice and consent of the council." But in practice it subordinated the governor to the council whenever a majority of the assembly was politically opposed to him, and the annual election of the council greatly increased chances of such opposition.

		The equivalence of individuals within groups derived concretely from the manipulation of people in the mechanics of colonial administration, just as museums of African art derived from the possibilities of thievery in discrete periods of conquest, and animal "families" in natural history museums were assembled from kills made within particular safaris.
		Colonial personnel in Africa prided themselves on interior knowledge, but they took their general orders from metropolitan officials living far away, whether in Mafeking and Cape Town, or the Foreign Office in London and the colonial ministry in Paris.
		Such examples again show that the role of images in the colonial project does not emerge from the images themselves, but rather lies in their appropriation into structures of distribution and consumption.
