Kenya was a beautiful country inhabited by different groups of people, some farmers, some herdsmen, a few hunters, when the English arrived. The main motivations for colonizing Kenya were economic -- to take away resources; and strategic -- to take control before the Germans or some other European "power" did. However, the English were a mixed group of people like everyone else. Many English people were concerned about the welfare of Kenyans and worked under colonialism. These were civil servants, missionaries and some farmers, business and professional people who worked hard to develop Kenya both before and after independence.
Before Kenya was such a pleasant, easy place to live, another group of people came to live in Kenya, known generally as the settlers. The first settlers tended to be the social outcasts from wealthy families in England ,though later they were joined by a wider group of English population. In particular, English soldiers who fought in the First World War were given farms in Kenya. This is a fantastic idea -- to give away land which does not belong to you in the first place. The people who actually owned the land tended either to be pushed off or to become servants and agricultural la borers for the people who arrived from England.
