1 abr 1817 ano - No more Malaria baby

Descrição:

The discovery of quinine, as a treatment for malaria, significantly impacted New Imperialism. It allowed European powers to colonize tropical regions* like Africa and Southeast Asia, where malaria was prevalent, because it reduced the threat of the disease. This made it easier for European nations to establish control and expand their empires in these areas during the late 19th century.
