In Berlin
The Africans took no place in the Berlin conference. There were 14 European nations there but no African tribal leaders were present.
The Berlin Conference, which took place in 1884 - 1885 is known by a couple of alternate names. One is the Congo Conference, and the other is the Berlin West Africa Conference.
In Portugal
The Berlin Conference regulated how European colonization and trade could take place in Africa. Known also as the Congo Conference, this conference brought about the brutal power of King Leopold II.
There are a number of things that the Berlin conference accomplished. The European nations came agreed on how to divide the African countries peacefully. The conference took place in 1885.
The Berlin Conference which took place in the late 19th century determined many of the borders of present day Africa. Most of the borders were arbitrary and made little sense relating to potential conflict.
It approved partition among European powers and agreed that future acquisitions could be gained by "effective occupation" - in other words force. What had previously been a matter largely of exploration and (usually predatory) treaty-making would henceforth be a process of armed conquest of the interior. For Congo, the conference formalised the brutal personal rule of King Leopold II and his private intermediaries.
The Berlin Conference was pretty much the dividing of Africa. The country leaders of Austria-Hungary, Sweden-Norway, Portugal, Spain, Holland, The United Kingdom, and other European countries attended this. The countries went here because of the raw minerals and slaves in Africa. You might learn in class about the Triangle Trade which consists of the trading from European countries to African countries to the United States. The Berlin Conference was held in Berlin, Germany It took place from November 1884 to February 1885. Not even a year between the two. This is significant because the leaders did this to avoid war. That didn't really work out because Holland had control of South Africa. Great Britain decided to go and take Holland. There ended up being a war between the 2 and Great Britain won South Africa.
The Berlin Conference began in 1884 and it regulated European Colonization and trade in Africa during the New Imperialism period. GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!! or The united states was invited to this conference but had no territorial claims in Africa.
Planning a conference is much simpler when you can have it all in one place. An inn and conference center is the perfect place to host your conference guests.
The Yalta Conference took place in 1945 on the Crimea Peninsula.
