Colonialism and Imperialism Concepts

The video lecture discusses three types of imperialism: colony, protectorate, and sphere of influence. A colony is a settlement controlled directly by the home country, exemplified by Great Britain's control over the early United States. A protectorate involves military protection with local governance, as seen in Great Britain's relationship with Egypt. A sphere of influence grants exclusive rights without governmental control, illustrated by Great Britain's economic privileges in China. The lecture concludes with an invitation for questions.
