Answer to Question 2
Answer: Europeans who worked or settled in the colonies imposed western laws, religion, and education on the local population. Europeans thought that their culture was a gift to the people they conquered, what they called the civilizing mission of empire. Whatever their intention, the effect was cultural imperialism, which is the substitution or subordination of one set of cultural traditions by another, either by force or by degrading those who fail to acculturate and rewarding those who do. Europeans seldom doubted that native cultures were inferior and that native peoples needed enlightenment. Therefore, the Europeans destroyed other ways of life, including religious and political traditions, physical artifacts such as art and architecture, and even records of history and science. Taken together, these changes fundamentally changed or destroyed local cultures in many parts of the world.
Therefore, in most countries, western cultural attributes linger as a legacy of European rule and still predominate or mix with native pre-European traditions. Europeans also brought their forms of administration, government, centralized state authority, judicial authority, and secularization.
