Colonies sought independence after World War I due to a combination of factors including the weakening of European powers, which diminished their control. Nationalist movements gained momentum as colonized peoples were inspired by the principles of self-determination and democracy promoted during the war. Additionally, the economic strains and social changes resulting from the war fueled desires for autonomy and governance. Ultimately, the war catalyzed a reevaluation of colonial relationships, leading many colonies to demand independence.
