Detailed Solution

Rinderpest is a cattle plague. Europeans were drawn toward Africa in the late nineteenth century for various reasons. This included vast lands for plantations and untapped mines for precious minerals. But there was a shortage of labour. The Africans have not acquainted with the wages for work concept, and the population was relatively small. So they depended on their lands and cattle to survive. But the cattle were plagued by the rinderpest disease in the late nineteenth century, killing about ninety per cent of the cattle. As a result, many Africans lost their source of income. Hence the European colonists could monopolise the scarce livestock and exploit the locals through the labour market.
