During chapter 25 there are a lot of changes about Europe. There are colonies being formed as will as many new inventions and improving technology that is already about. Furthermore there are also a lot of missionary work in China, India and Africa. Imperialism is very important, and there are still pieces of it being used today. One example would be zoos.

With the invention of the steamboat came the opportunity to enter the middle of Africa. There were also war ships made out of steamboats. There were boats before the steamboat, but it was the first one to actually be self-propelling. Today you can till ride on one in St. Louis Missouri. I had the opportunity to ride on one while I was on vacation in St. Louis. It was something that people should try. It was like staking a step back in time.

Also many women in missionaries would be teachers at schools and at university’s. If any of the women had medical skills, they would help at some local hospitals and they would help take care of the sick. Missionary’s also felt that they could saw people.

Today there are still missionaries all over the world. A lot of missionaries now, are in South America and Africa still. Most of the time now, many people don’t actually help the countries directly. We just send missionaries money and then they help spend the money in the countries that need them. A lot of money is going to Africa right now to help them get cleaner and healthier water. Many people believe that it is our duties to take care of people we cant take care of themselves. If there is very a bad earthquake many time
