Paternalistic imperial policies refer to an approach by imperial powers that aims to exert control over a subject population while also claiming to protect and provide for their well-being. To determine which of the given places was subject to paternalistic imperial policies, let's examine each option:
1. Cuba: Cuba was subjected to paternalistic imperial policies by the Spanish Empire during its colonial rule. The Spanish claimed to bring civilization, Christianity, and economic development to the indigenous population while maintaining their political and economic dominance.
2. Nigeria: Nigeria was under the control of the British Empire during the era of imperialism. The British implemented paternalistic imperial policies in Nigeria, aiming to control and exploit the population while also introducing Western education, infrastructure development, and modern governance systems.
3. Mughal Empire: The Mughal Empire was not subject to paternalistic imperial policies as it was an indigenous empire in South Asia rather than being under the control of Western powers during the era of imperialism.
4. Great Britain: Great Britain, as the imperial power itself, did not experience paternalistic imperial policies but instead implemented such policies in their colonies, including Cuba and Nigeria.
In conclusion, both Cuba and Nigeria were subject to paternalistic imperial policies.
