Pros
- Expansion of land for the country that claimed it
- Expansion of that country's rule and religion
- Resources and new territories are gained/controlled
Cons
- Needs law enforcement in the new colony to keep the country/city going
- Unrest for the colonies' people due to taxation and other problems such as their resources getting taken all the time
- Laws that seem or are unfair to that colonized country/city
Conclusion
I think that colonialism is both good and bad, because if there was no colonialism period our world today could be/look very different, and the bad side is that the colonized country/city are usually forced to do most of the things.
