Over 60 countries gained independence from British rule throughout the 20th century, particularly after World War II. This process, known as decolonization, involved various nations in Africa, the Caribbean, Asia, and the Pacific. Notable examples include India in 1947, Ghana in 1957, and many others achieving independence through a mix of negotiations and struggles for self-determination. The wave of decolonization significantly reshaped global politics and contributed to the emergence of new nations.
