Scramble for Africa

1. What strategy did you use to claim land?

We searched the resources map and the atlas for the largest amount of resources. Our team was the first to roll and so we also got nine dice. So our first number was very high and we got first preference. This wasn't really a strategy, but it was an advantage. In the negotiations after every round people kept asking to trade Sierra Leone, but we said no. Later on, in round 3 we ended up trading with Belgium for a part of South Africa.

2. What factors did you consider in claiming land?

How much iron, copper, and zinc each part of Africa had.

3. Who won the Scramble for Africa?

Germany (my team) or Great Britain. I'm not really sure.

4. Who lost in the Scramble for Africa?

Spain lost. They could have improved their score though if we had time to finish round 4 so it's inaccurate.
