Ghana's transition to independence in 1957 was largely peaceful due to the strategic leadership of figures like Kwame Nkrumah, who advocated for non-violent resistance and political engagement rather than armed struggle. The Gold Coast's political landscape was shaped by a series of constitutional reforms and negotiations with colonial authorities, leading to a gradual increase in self-governance. The relatively cooperative relationship between nationalist leaders and the British colonial administration helped facilitate a smooth transfer of power, culminating in Ghana becoming the first sub-Saharan African country to gain independence. Additionally, widespread popular support for independence fostered a united front against colonial rule, reducing the potential for violent conflict.
In 1961 Sierra Leone won its independence after 150 years of British rule. The transition was initially very peaceful.

Saint Kitts and Nevis gained independence from British colonial rule on September 19, 1983. The journey to independence began with a series of constitutional changes and increased self-governance during the 1960s and 1970s, including the establishment of a federal state with other Caribbean islands. Strong nationalist movements and negotiations ultimately led to a peaceful transition to independence, marked by a celebration of their sovereignty and the establishment of a democratic government.
