Explanation:

Question 9

The Berlin Conference of 1884 - 1885 was about European powers dividing Africa among themselves. Option a is wrong as it didn't focus on Congo citizens' rights. Option b is about naval tonnage (like Washington Naval Treaty, not Berlin Conference). Option c: The Congo was given to Belgium (Leopold II), not Portugal. Option d matches: it set rules for European colonial expansion in Africa.

During the "Scramble for Africa," European powers colonized most of Africa. The correct percentage is around 90% of the African continent. 50, 30, 66 are too low.

Answer:

d) established the ground rules for a new phase of European expansion in Africa.
