Excerpt from British and German East Africa: Their Economic Commercial Relations
The opening of the Suez Canal, in 1869, created new connections between East Africa and the Occident. The glorious explorations of the mission aries Livingstone, Krapf, and Rebmann, had awakened an interest in the Dark Continent, and opened a new field for evangelization. Lay explorers like Speke and Grant made further discoveries, and whetted the appetite for colonial acquisition.
