"As part of East Africa, Kenya has seen human habitation since the Lower Paleolithic period. The Bantu expansion reached the area by the first millennium AD, and the borders of the modern state comprise the crossroads of the Niger-Congo, Nilo-Saharan, and Afro-Asiatic linguistic areas of Africa, making Kenya a truly multi-cultural state. European and Arab presence in Mombasa dates to the Early Modern period, but European exploration of the interior began only in the 19th century. The British Empire established the East Africa Protectorate in 1895, known from 1920 as the Kenya Colony. The independent Republic of Kenya was founded in December 1963."

It is important to note that the name of the territory where Obama's father was born is often referred to as "Kenya" for simplicity. However, during his father's birth in 1936, the region was under British colonial rule and known as the British East Africa Protectorate. It later became the British crown colony of Kenya in 1920 and gained independence in 1963. So, when it is said that Obama's father was born in Kenya, it is actually referring to the same geographical region that is now known as Kenya.
