Most African countries gained their independence through a combination of political negotiation, armed struggle, and decolonization movements following World War II. The weakening of European powers during the war and the rise of nationalist sentiments among African populations fueled demands for self-governance. Many countries achieved independence through peaceful negotiations, while others experienced prolonged conflicts and revolutions against colonial rule. By the 1960s, a wave of decolonization swept across the continent, leading to the establishment of numerous independent nations.
