Yes, the Declaration of Independence and the American Revolutionary War significantly altered the relationship between the US and Britain. The Declaration marked the formal assertion of American independence, leading to a protracted conflict that ultimately resulted in the colonies gaining sovereignty. Following the war, the relationship was strained and characterized by mutual distrust, although it gradually evolved into a more cooperative partnership in subsequent decades. The shift from adversaries to allies, particularly during World War I and II, reflects the complex nature of their evolving relationship.

In 1950, the only four independent nations in Africa were Liberia, which gained independence in 1847, and Ethiopia, which maintained its sovereignty except for a brief Italian occupation from 1936 to 1941. The other two nations, Egypt and South Africa, were also recognized as independent, though they were under colonial rule in various forms. Most African countries were still colonies during this period, with independence movements gaining momentum in the following decades.
Before gaining independence in 1993, Eritrea was a province of Ethiopia, having been annexed in 1962 after a period of British administration following World War II. The region has a long history of colonization, first by Italy in the late 19th century, and later by the British from 1941 to 1952. The annexation led to a prolonged struggle for independence, marked by a brutal armed conflict that lasted for nearly three decades. Eritrea finally achieved independence following the Eritrean-Ethiopian War, which concluded with a referendum in 1993, resulting in overwhelming support for independence.
After World War I, many European colonies experienced a surge of nationalist sentiments and a desire for self-determination. The war had weakened European powers, leading colonies to question their colonial status and push for independence. Inspired by the principles of self-determination promoted during the war, movements for independence began to gain momentum, as colonial subjects sought to assert their rights and challenge imperial rule. This period marked the beginning of significant shifts toward decolonization in the decades that followed.
