    Imperialism: A Lack of Accountability and Efficiency in Heart of Darkness Imperialism that started with the idea of civilizing the world ended as an act of ‘pure dominance and land grabbing’1. The idea behind imperialism was to populate the uninhabited lands‚ and to educate the primitive people of the ‘dark lands’ [i].

Achebe states that Heart of Darkness is responsible in part for perpetuating the barbaric Africa that even people in the 20th century have heard or read of. Achebe’s article also states that Heart of Darkness allegedly makes use of the dichotomy between the river Thames and the Congo River to juxtaposition the light and dark‚ or civilized and savage themes of the
