But what is colonialism? Colonialism occurs when one nation takes control of another. Kenya’s experience as a colony of Great Britain gives us more of an idea of what being colonized meant both to the people being controlled and to those who control them. Although it seems hard to believe, Kenya was created by the Europeans and generally this had a positive on effect on Kenyans because it began development.

Dating back throughout history woman were often considered to be too soft or docile to work.

Classical utilitarianism focused simply on pleasure and happiness, however, this includes economic gain and generally improved quality of life. Single mothers currently suffer from an unemployment rate of 7.6%, significantly higher than the married mother at 4% (Mathru). Moreover, the average entry-level law associate works over 46 hours per week (Law). These statistics form a demanding and risky future. The time required in being a mother is incalculable.

You will discover that the most appropriate time for travelling is during the holidays. During the last holiday, I happened to visit Nairobi National Park in Nairobi.
