British Imperialism very much angered the Boers and the Zulu.
They thought they were helping to civilize the African people by influencing them because the Europeans thought they were the superior race. They thought it was their duty to teach the inferior races.
The people of Angola were victims of the imperialism of Portugal. Angolans were forced to obey Portuguese laws and to give up valuable minerals and farmlands to Portugal.
The Age of Imperialism caused a Western-educated African elite to emerge.
Imperialism is the tendency of any state to create an empire, including non-European ones. It generally includes colonialism, the difference being the extent and sophistication of the political organizations controlled. British control over India and South Africa were both part of British imperialism, although it is called colonialism with regard to South Africa because of the nature of the political structures there. Manifest Destiny was the rationale behind a particular period of American Imperialism or colonialism, the drive to extend the borders of the United States westward in the early to mid nineteenth century. But the ideology which drove it, the idea that the United States had a God-given right to expand and control whatever parts of the world it wanted, has always been and still remains fundamental to American imperialism. A similar arrogance underlies all empire-building states.

People in Algeia fought against the French for almost 50 years.
Imperialism was the result of a people's motivation for aquiring goods and/or resources that were available elsewhere. America imperialized the Phillipines for control of trade with the Orient. The British imperialized Southern Africa to posses the diamond mines there. The Russians imperialized Azerbaijan for control of its oil.

A very large number.
In the nineteenth century many European nations created vast colonies in Africa. By the end of the Age of Imperialism all of Africa, excluding Ethiopia, were under the rule of outside Europeans. This has had an influence even up to today. With the expansion into Africa, Europeans carved new borders in Africa. In many countries, the local people were oppressed and, in some cases, subject to extreme cruelty (as in the case of King Leopold's treatment of the Congo). Many countries experienced turmoil following the Europeans leaving and in areas with many white people, there were many years of racial discrimination. Most of the reason Africa is having such difficulties today is because of European imperialism.
The people of South Africa were negatively affected. Their country was basically invaded and stripped of all its natural resources. The British and Dutch were the European influences on South Africa.
