Britain definitely had most colonies
During the European imperial expansion from 1700 to 1900, Africa and Asia were the most affected continents. Africa experienced extensive colonization, exploitation of resources, and the imposition of foreign governance, leading to significant social and economic disruption. In Asia, regions like India, Southeast Asia, and China faced colonial rule, economic exploitation, and cultural changes due to European influence. Both continents saw profound and lasting impacts on their societies, economies, and political structures as a result of imperialism.
In 1900, the most powerful country in the world was Great Britain. It was at the height of its imperial power, controlling a vast empire that spanned multiple continents and included territories in Africa, Asia, the Americas, and the Pacific. Britain's industrial strength, naval supremacy, and financial influence made it the leading global power of the time. However, the geopolitical landscape was beginning to shift as other nations, particularly Germany and the United States, were rapidly industrializing and expanding their own power.
In 1900, the British Empire ruled about one-fourth of the world's land and population. It was the largest empire in history, encompassing territories across various continents, including North America, India, Africa, Australia, and parts of the Caribbean and the Pacific. This extensive reach was a result of colonization and imperial expansion during the 19th century.

By 1900, major European powers like Germany and Italy did not possess colonies in West Africa. While Britain and France had established significant colonial territories in the region, Germany's colonial ambitions were primarily focused on areas in East Africa and Cameroon, while Italy had limited investments in Africa overall. The lack of colonies in West Africa for these countries reflected the competitive nature of European imperialism during this period.
