Cecil Rhodes wrote that he wanted to “paint as much of the map of Africa British red as possible.” Which of the following best paraphrases what he meant?

I don't see any answer choices but I will explain. Cecil Rhodes primarily says that he wants Africa to be overrun by British colonization.

Explanation:

Rhodes was a believer in British Imperialism by which he believed that the British should extend their power over Africa to conquer them and extort them for political and economic gain. During the late 1890s, the then prime minister of Cape Colony wanted the British to overrule the existing government. During his lifetime, Rhodes used this concept of British Imperialism and colonized what we know as Zambia and Zimbabwe together with the BSAC.
