The first part of Africa to receive significant European contact was the northern coast, particularly around modern-day Morocco and the Canary Islands. Portuguese explorers began establishing trade routes and settlements along the West African coast in the 15th century. This marked the beginning of European exploration and colonization in Africa, which expanded further into the continent over the following centuries.
