The hardships the Europeans faced in Africa was disease, being attacked by other African tribes & also it was hard to navigate around because they didn't know the conditions there. It's strange that the third largest lake, Lake Victoria is named after a British queen because the lake is named after a queen in a whole different continent & because the explorers who explored in Africa were from Europe. The technological advantage the Europeans had over the African people was that they had guns & they had boats that ran on coal, so they didn't need a sail. The Europeans were eventually able to conquer the Africans because the Africans were not as strong as them. The Europeans had better weapon than the Africans did. The Africans soon gave up after seeing how strong their weapons were.
