What role did emerging market-based capitalism and changes in the nature of European states play late imperial atrocities like King Leopold's in the Congo?

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

The role that emerging market-based capitalism and changes in the nature of European states played in the colonization of African territories was that these European powers wanted to colonize Africa not because they wanted to help African people thrive. No. European monarchies just wanted to exploit the many raw materials and natural resources that were abundant in Africa.

That was the case with imperial atrocities like King Leopold's in the Congo, perpetuated from 1885 to 1908. The atrocities committed by King Leopold's government forced Africans to work for long hours in the harsh hot weather of Africa to produce rubber. Of course, people worked under unhealthy and risky conditions.
