Colonization had a devastating effect on residents of African, Asian, and Pacific lands seized by imperial powers. People were exploited for their labor, made to grow cash crops, collect rubber and ivory, and transport European goods through difficult terrain. They received low wages if any, and failure to meet quotas was met with harsh punishment. Colonizers brought infectious diseases with them, causing people and livestock to sicken and die. People in Africa, Asia, and the Pacific Islands fought back in ways that cost the lives of many. In India, resistance took the form of political organization.
