- Today, that land makes up much of what's now Russia and Mongolia. Ultimately, empire, imperialism, and colonialism are all interrelated tactics of geopolitics that are used to achieve similar goals of one state maintaining economic, political, or cultural dominance over other territories, often for economic gain. In geography, when we want to study how colonialism changes the cultural landscape, we'll start with economic relationships. As we'll talk about more next time, geographers are particularly interested in the mechanisms that create uneven development, where one place has more wealth and power than another. Modern economic relationships have deep connections to colonialism, and geographers have a few different ways to think about the connection between colonialism and current economic landscapes. One way to think about lasting impacts of colonialism on the landscape is through dependency theory. The basic idea is that the long history of extraction between a colony and its colonizer creates an economic situation that's difficult to pull out of. It leaves those former colonies still economically reliant on the colonizer after gaining independence. To further explain the relationship between those with global power and those without, world systems theory categorizes the world into core areas with a lot of wealth and power, periphery areas that send raw materials to the core and rely on the core for economic support, and then semi-periphery areas which rely on relationships with both the core and the periphery and some wealth and power. And neocolonialism is another theory that attempts to explain situations where one country is outwardly independent, but their economic and political power is closely monitored and controlled by external forces. Geographers use ideas like these and others to explain the way powerful and less powerful countries relate to each other.
如今，這片土地的大部分已成為俄羅斯和蒙古的領土。歸根結底，帝國主義、帝國主義和殖民主義都是地緣政治中相互關聯的策略，用來實現一個國家對其他領土保持經濟、政治或文化統治的類似目標，通常是為了獲取經濟利益。在地理學中，當我們想研究殖民主義如何改變文化景觀時，我們會從經濟關係入手。正如我們下次將詳細討論的那樣，地理學家對造成不均衡發展的機制特別感興趣，即一個地方比另一個地方擁有更多的財富和權力。現代經濟關係與殖民主義有著深刻的聯繫，地理學家有幾種不同的方法來思考殖民主義與當前經濟格局之間的聯繫。思考殖民主義對景
加納為何故意淹沒其3.5%的土地 (Why Ghana Deliberately Flooded 3.5% of Their Land)

- The terms for the foreign investment they received, covering the remaining 50% of the construction costs, only gave the Ghanian government the rights to just 20% of the dam's total electricity output, while the remaining 80% was strictly allocated for the aluminum plant in Te MMA, which was at the time privately owned by an american company, which led to widespread accusations of neocolonialism being practiced in Ghana.
他們獲得的外國投資的條件，包括其餘50%的建設費用，只給了加納政府大壩總髮電量的20%的權利，而剩下的80%被嚴格分配給當時由一家美國公司私人擁有的Te MMA的鋁廠，這導致了對加納實施新殖民主義的廣泛指責。
