African countries began gaining independence primarily in the mid-20th century, with a significant wave occurring from the late 1940s through the 1970s. Notable milestones include Libya's independence from Italy in 1951, Ghana's from British colonial rule in 1957, and the widespread decolonization that followed, culminating in the independence of many nations by the early 1980s. This period was marked by a broader movement against colonialism and the rise of nationalist leaders across the continent.
