Maxim Force

Series 1, episode 5

Niall Ferguson returns to the sites of some of Britain's bloodiest imperial conflicts - in the Boer War and the Sudan - to tell the story of how European powers competed in the notorious 'Scramble for Africa'. He argues that it was a combination of global finance, military firepower and the mass media that allowed African territory to be carved up by European leaders.
