Best Answer

The French began first began attacking Madagascar with the intent of colonization in 1883, during the Franco-Hova war. The war ended in 1895 when the French took the city of Antananarivo. One year later, in 1896, the French parliament voted to officially annex the island. This period of French colonization lasted from 1896 to 1960, when Madagascar peacefully declared independence.
