The correct differentiation between direct and indirect imperial rule is:
**Direct rule occurs when a colony is directly ruled by foreign powers, while indirect rule occurs when local people administrate on behalf of foreign powers.**
In direct rule, the colonial power exerts control over the government and administration, often deploying officials from the colonizing country to manage the colony directly. In contrast, in indirect rule, the colonial power allows local rulers or existing political structures to maintain authority, but these local leaders operate under the oversight and authority of the colonial administration. This system is often seen as a way to maintain some local governance while still ensuring colonial control.
