Explanation:

Cecil Rhodes was a British explorer and conqueror that was the most prominent person when it came to gaining control of large portions of Africa. Rhodes managed to led expeditions further into the mainland, evaluating the opportunities of it, and step by step conquering parts of Africa. Apart from being a conqueror, Rhodes was also very interested in the flora, fauna, and geography, so he managed to make accounts of numerous species and to describe parts of Africa in great detail. In his honor, some of African territories were named after him, like Rhodesia for example.
