CHAPTER 24 Industrialization and Imperialism: The Making of the European Global Order Western European industrialization fundamentally altered the nature of European overseas expansion. Previously Europeans sought desired material goods or moved against threats from external enemies. In the Americas, they seized lands for plantation crops. Christian missionaries sought converts.

Raw materials were needed to fuel industrial growth, and markets were required for its manufacturing production.. The increased power of the West made it fear other European imperial rivalries more than indigenous opposition.
