Colonization and imperialism at the end of World War II (1945)

A colony is a place controlled by another country. The metropolitan state is the country that owns the colony. Now the phrase Dependent territory is used instead of colony.

A country which has many colonies is often called an empire. A colonist is a person from the metropolitan state who lives in a colony.
