The policy of assimilation in Africa was initially adopted by colonial powers, particularly the French, who sought to transform colonized populations into French citizens by promoting European culture and values. However, this approach was largely abandoned as it proved to be impractical and met with significant resistance from African communities. By the mid-20th century, as nationalist movements gained momentum, colonial authorities recognized the futility of assimilation in the face of growing demands for independence and cultural preservation. The shift towards recognizing indigenous identities contributed to the eventual decolonization of many African nations.

Where did different races come from at the beginning of the world?
The concept of different races is rooted in the complex interplay of genetics, environment, and social constructs that evolved over thousands of years. Early humans originated in Africa, and as they migrated to different regions, they adapted to varying climates and environments, leading to physical differences. Over time, these adaptations became more pronounced, contributing to the diversity we see today. However, it's important to note that race is largely a social construct rather than a strictly biological one.
What became a major food soure in Africa because of the columbian exchange?
One major food source that became prominent in Africa due to the Columbian Exchange is the cassava, a drought-resistant root vegetable native to South America.

Its ability to thrive in poor soil conditions made it particularly valuable in regions prone to drought and food insecurity.
