Imperialism did not end all at once everywhere in Africa, but European colonization of Africa was disrupted by WW II, and following WW II there were a series of wars of independence which brought an end to European colonialism.
The Scramble for Africa, also called the Partition of Africa, or the Conquest of Africa, was the invasion, occupation, division, and colonization of most of Africa by seven Western European powers during a short period known to historians as the New Imperialism (between 1881 and 1914).
