Answer Details
France introduced the policy of assimilation in her colonies primarily to change the way of life of the colonized people. This was an attempt to make them more French-like and to integrate them into French society by promoting French language, culture, customs, values and institutions. The policy aimed to make the colonized people French in every aspect and to gradually erase their indigenous culture and way of life. The ultimate goal was to make the colonies an extension of France itself.
