Answer: The British goals after the Berlin Conference was to create a series of British colonies all linked by a railroad.

Explanation: By the 1880's, imperialism was rapidly growing in Africa and a conference needed to be created in order to "divide" the continent and establish norms and rules for future imperialism. Cecil Rhodes was a British colonizer and businessman who put a lot of effort towards the creation of the railroad through British territory. Cecil's project was initiated but never completed.
