On December 12, 1963, a short time after the Mau Mau Rebellion that brought the country to a state of emergency and stretched the patience of British rule, Kenya established its independence with the introduction of the Constitution of Kenya. Later that year, the people had to fight for their independence once more when the Somalis attempted to take over and adopt Kenya into the Republic of Somalia. Kenya won the war in 1967.
The Mau Mau Rebellion occurred in Kenya, then a British colony, between 1952 and 1956 in an attempt to permit native Africans to access the Kenya highlands which were mostly owned by white settlers. The British government had provided land in Kenya to veterans of World War Two and the local populations felt dispossessed. The rebellion pitted Africans against Africans and Africans against British government forces. Some ethnic groups sided with the British, others sided with the rebels. Many acts of violence and retribution for violence occurred. This rebellion was supported politically by the Kenya African Union, led by Jomo Kenyatta who became, at the time of Kenya's independence from Great Britain in 1963, Kenya's first Prime Minister and subsequently its President. While some Mau Mau veterans may claim that they achieved independence for Kenya, their case is somewhat exaggerated. The rebellion may have supported the movement for independence, yet starting in 1957 (in Ghana, then Gold Coast) the British began granting independence to its African colonies. The days of the British Empire were already numbered by 1963.
