Editing Berlin Conference (section)

==Agenda==
* '''Portugal–Britain''': The Portuguese government presented a project, known as the "[[Pink Map]]", or the "Rose-Coloured Map", in which the colonies of [[Portuguese Angola|Angola]] and [[Portuguese Mozambique|Mozambique]] were united by co-option of the intervening territory (the land later became [[Zambia]], [[Zimbabwe]], and [[Malawi]]). All of the countries attending the conference, except for Britain, endorsed Portugal's ambitions, and just over five years later, in 1890, the British government  [[British Ultimatum|issued an ultimatum]] that demanded the Portuguese withdraw from the disputed area.{{Citation needed|date=April 2008}}
* '''France–Britain''': A line running from [[Say, Niger|Say]] in Niger to [[Maroua]], on the northeastern coast of [[Lake Chad]], determined which part belonged to whom. France would own territory to the north of the line, and Britain would own territory to the south of it. The basin of the [[Nile]] would be British, with the French taking the basin of Lake Chad. Furthermore, between the [[11th parallel north|11th]] and [[15th parallel north|15th]] degrees north in [[latitude]], the border would pass between [[Ouaddai Kingdom|Ouaddaï]], which would be French, and [[Darfur]] in Sudan, which would be British. In reality, a [[no man's land]] 200&nbsp;km wide was put in place between the [[21st meridian east|21st]] and [[23rd meridian east|23rd]] meridians east.
* '''France–Germany''': The area to the north of a line, formed by the intersection of the [[14th meridian east]] and Miltou, was designated to be French, and the area to the south would be German, later called [[German Cameroon]].
* '''Britain–Germany''': The separation came in the form of a line passing through [[Yola, Nigeria|Yola]], on the [[Benue River|Benue]], [[Dekoa]], going up to the extremity of [[Lake Chad]].
* '''France–Italy''': Italy was to own what lies north of a line from the intersection of the [[Tropic of Cancer]] and the [[17th meridian east]] to the intersection of the [[15th parallel north]] and the [[21st meridian east]].
