Somewhat surprisingly, the newly freed African nations

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

After gaining independence, the African nations generally did not change the borders imposed by European colonial powers, even though these borders did not align with historical tribal kingdoms and often caused conflict. Some Africans who had lived in Europe or America during the colonial era did become leaders of the new nations. There were efforts to establish multiparty democratic systems, but these were often unstable or undermined by authoritarian leaders. However, the option of Europeans remaining in the country after independence was not generally offered or accepted.
