Positive Effects of the New Imperialism

Even with all the bloodshed that occurred during Imperialism, there are still clean patches on the cloth of empire. The lands of India were industrialized and new buildings were built as well as new roads, new telegraph system, and new rail roads. These creations improved communication in the area of India. The there was peace brought in by the British in India. The people of Africa and India were given schools so that the conquered can learn. Another good thing that happened in India was the breaking of the chaste system. The Indians are separated into rigid classes that people of one chaste can only marry and talk to that one chaste. Another plus is that there is a spread of Chrisitanity in the empires.
