Question

1. by 1914, which two african countries remained free from european colonization?

a. liberia and ethiopia
b. ghana and kenya
c. egypt and morocco
d. south africa and nigeria

Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze the historical context of African colonization by 1914. Liberia was founded by freed American slaves and maintained its independence, while Ethiopia successfully resisted European colonization (notably from Italy at the Battle of Adwa). Ghana, Kenya, Egypt, Morocco, South Africa, and Nigeria were colonized by European powers by 1914. Thus, the two African countries remaining free from European colonization by 1914 are Liberia and Ethiopia.

Answer:

A. Liberia and Ethiopia
