The impact of the Berlin Conference of 1884-85 on Africa was significant as it led to the partition and colonization of Africa by European powers, without regard for the existing cultural and ethnic boundaries. This had long-lasting effects on the continent, including the creation of artificial borders that often led to conflict and instability.

The main aim of the Round Table Conference of 1930-32 was to discuss proposals for the creation of a federal system of government in British India, and to address the issue of communal representation.

The Bandung Conference of 1955 was significant as it brought together leaders of newly independent Asian and African states to discuss issues of mutual concern, such as colonialism, racial discrimination, and economic inequality. The conference was a significant moment in the history of the decolonization process and the emergence of the Third World.
