Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • Question 16: The Sepoy Rebellion (1857) was a significant uprising against British imperial rule in India. The Boer War was in South Africa, the Boxer Rebellion in China, and the Russo - Japanese War was between Russia and Japan.
  • Question 17: The Boxer Rebellion (1899 - 1901) was a reaction to growing foreign influence (such as spheres of influence) and missionary activity in China. The fall of the Qing dynasty was later (1912), communism rose much later, and the Meiji Restoration was in Japan.
  • Question 18: The Zulu resistance was ultimately defeated by Britain. For example, the Battle of Ulundi (1879) was a key British victory over the Zulus.
  • Question 19: Imperialism spread Western influence (e.g., language, technology) but exploited colonized lands (e.g., for resources, labor). It did not end global conflicts, did not benefit colonized peoples equally, and was not limited to Africa.
  • Question 20: The Roosevelt Corollary (to the Monroe Doctrine) justified U.S. expansion and influence in the Caribbean, stating that the U.S. could intervene in Latin American affairs to maintain stability. Dollar Diplomacy was more about economic influence, and the Monroe Doctrine was a broader statement about the Western Hemisphere.
