Answer:
3) Europeans are powerful enough to subdue an entire continent.
Explanation:
The cartoon "The Rhodes Colossus" was published in the English weekly "Punch" in 1892. Cecil Rhodes appears holding the telegraph cable while crossing the entire African continent at once. The image makes reference to the British colonialist ambition.
Cecil John Rhodes (1853-1902), Africa's richest man, known as king of diamonds, devoted half his life to the enlargement of the British Empire. He was an insatiable representative of colonial capitalism, and conceived one of the most ambitious projects of colonialism: the one that would unite Cape Town, South Africa, with Cairo, Egypt, by a transcontinental railway.
