Solution

The correct option is A 1884-1885
Between 1881 and 1914, almost all of Africa was colonised by the Europeans. This frantic struggle to claim African territories was called the “Scramble for Africa” or the “Partition of Africa”.
The Berlin Conference of 1884-1885 wanted to cut Africa into different parts and give it to each European power.
