Before gaining independence in 1964, Zambia was a British protectorate known as Northern Rhodesia. The territory was governed by British colonial officials, and local leaders had limited power under the colonial administration. The struggle for independence was led by nationalist movements, most notably the United National Independence Party (UNIP) under Kenneth Kaunda, who eventually became the first president of independent Zambia.
