I just thought that it would be good to have a section on this. Feel free to discuse any aspect of imperialism.
Also here's a quot of Gordon Brown, made while he was still the chancellor, which I find pretty worrying: "The days of apologising for British imperialism are over. We should celebrate it." (!)

MARX: “It is not the consciousness of men that determines their existence, but, on the contrary, their social existence determines their consciousness." EINSTEIN: "The tragedy of life is what dies inside a man while he lives."
Imperialism is the exploitation of fresh opportunity. Within a complex and developed society, over time, opportunity begins to diminish due to the confines of resources and available assets such as agricultural land, minerals and other things. The sophistication of the people of the complex society and their proliferation creates a pressure, caused by these limitations, which can lead to some form of unrest unless some type of relief is made available through some type of new opportunity.
