Question: What areas of the continent where Legend of the Lost was filmed were involved in colonization?

<P0-S0> the european colonization of the americas forever changed the lives and cultures of the peoples of the continents. <P0-S1> although the exact pre-contact population of the americas is unknown, scholars estimate that native american populations diminished by between 80 and 90% within the first centuries of contact with europeans. <P0-S2> the leading cause was disease. <P0-S3> the continent was ravaged by epidemics of diseases such as smallpox, measles, and cholera, which were brought from europe by the early explorers and spread quickly into new areas even before later explorers and colonists reached them. <P0-S4> native americans suffered high mortality rates due to their lack of prior exposure to these diseases. <P0-S5> the loss of lives was exacerbated by conflict between colonists and indigenous people. <P0-S6> colonists also frequently perpetrated massacres on the indigenous groups and enslaved them. <P0-S7> according to the u.s. bureau of the census (1894), the north american indian wars of the 19th century cost the lives of about 19,000 whites and 30,000 native americans. <SEP> <P1-S0> The ``Scramble for Africa ''was the occupation, division, and colonisation of African territory by European powers during the period of New Imperialism, between 1881 and 1914. <P1-S1> It is also called the Partition of Africa and by some the Conquest of Africa. <P1-S2> In 1870, only 10 percent of Africa was under European control; by 1914 it had increased to almost 90 percent of the continent, with only Ethiopia (Abyssinia), the Dervish state (a portion of present - day Somalia) and Liberia still being independent. <SEP> <P2-S0> Wayne liked the location work in Rome and Libya. <P2-S1> The plot is vaguely similar to another of Wayne's movies crossing the Mojave Desert. <P2-S2> The Roman remains of Leptis Magna in Libya were used extensively as a location for the ancient city. <P2-S3> In the script Wayne's character refers to 'Timgad' in sardonic reference to the apparent delusions of Paul's father, despite the fact this places a considerable strain on the geography of the plot. <P2-S4> The lost city of Timgad referred to in the film was actually the Leptis Magna ruins, a Roman city dating back to the 7th century B.C. <P2-S5> near Tripoli, in northwest Libya, while ``Timbuktu ''was actually in Zliten, Libya. <P2-S6> Headquarters for the film were located in Ghadames, where, according to the publicity material, citizens of the villages were employed on set, as well as some native Tuaregs, an ancient desert tribe. <SEP> <P3-S0> Libya (; ; ), officially the State of Libya, is a country in the Maghreb region in North Africa, bordered by the Mediterranean Sea to the north, Egypt to the east, Sudan to the southeast, Chad to the south, Niger to the southwest, Algeria to the west, and Tunisia to the northwest. <P3-S1> The sovereign state is made of three historical regions: Tripolitania, Fezzan and Cyrenaica. <P3-S2> With an area of almost , Libya is the fourth largest country in Africa, and is the 16th largest country in the world. <P3-S3> Libya has the 10th-largest proven oil reserves of any country in the world. <P3-S4> The largest city and capital, Tripoli, is located in western Libya and contains over one million of Libya's six million people. <P3-S5> The second-largest city is Benghazi, which is located in eastern Libya. <SEP> <P4-S0> in some rare cases, such as with ethiopia and qing dynasty china, the local governments were able to use the treaties to at least mitigate the impact of european colonization. <P4-S1> this involved learning the intricacies of european diplomatic customs and then using the treaties to prevent a power from overstepping their agreement or by playing different powers against each other.
