Germany came late to the
imperialist scramble for remote colonial territory
The rise of German imperialism coincided with the latter stages of the
"scramble for Africa," during which Germany competed with other European
powers for control of the last unexplored continent's territories.
Many Germans in the late 19th century viewed colonial acquisitions as a
true indication of having achieved nationhood.
Germany did assemble an overseas empire
in less than two decades. Acquisitions and the growth of the colonies
was accomplished
through mercantile domination and succeeding “take-overs,”
Stamps were issued by the German authorities for
all colonies:German South West Africa, German New Guinea, Kiatschou,
Togo, Samoa, Marshall Islands, Mariana Islands, Caroline Islands, German
East Africa and Kamerun. These stamps had a uniform appearance depicting
the imperial yacht SMY Hohenzollern. Regular German stamps were used
prior to the inroduction of the yacht issue.
