Colonial Agreements were formal arrangements made between colonial powers and indigenous populations or other colonial entities. These agreements often outlined terms of trade, land use, and governance, aiming to establish peaceful relations and mutual benefits. They played a crucial role in the expansion of empires, such as those of Britain, France, and Spain during the age of exploration. These agreements could take various forms, including treaties, contracts, or pacts. While some aimed to protect the rights of indigenous peoples, many ultimately favored the interests of colonial powers, leading to exploitation and conflict. Understanding these agreements helps to shed light on the complexities of colonial history.
