Liberia is an African country that people usually claim is not colonized, but since it was founded by American Blacks who established a very European-style country, it is hard to make the claim that it was not a colonial project.However, it was never part of a proper colony.

How many years was Liberia colonized by the us?

Liberia was not exactly colonized in the traditional sense, but it was established as a settlement for freed American slaves in the early 19th century, with its first settlers arriving in 1822. The American Colonization Society played a significant role in this process until Liberia declared its independence in 1847. Thus, while the influence of the U.S. persisted for some years, the formal settlement period lasted about 25 years.
