European imperialists generally did not want to withdraw from Africa, as many sought to maintain control over their colonies for economic exploitation and strategic advantage. However, post-World War II pressures, including rising nationalist movements and changing global attitudes towards Imperialism, led to a gradual decolonization process. Many European powers eventually recognized that continuing colonial rule was unsustainable and economically burdensome, prompting a shift towards granting independence to African nations. This withdrawal was often contentious and met with resistance, both from colonial powers and the local populations.
