Portugal renews expansion into the African interior …
Years: 1864 - 1875
Portugal renews expansion into the African interior from the late 1870s through the early 1890s.
Part of the impetus comes from the Lisbon Geographical Society, founded in 1875 by a group of industrialists, scholars, and colonial and military officials.
This society stimulates a popular concern for the colonies in Portugal.
In reaction to the activities of the society and the growing interest among Europeans in colonial adventure, the Portuguese government allots large sums for public works in Africa and encourages a minor revival of missionary work.
