Answer:The history of external colonisation of Africa can be dated from ancient, medieval, or modern history, depending on how the term colonisation is defined. In popular parlance, discussions of colonialism in Africa usually focus on the European conquests of the New Imperialism and the Scramble for Africa (1884-1914) era, followed by gradual decolonisation.

In nearly all African countries today, the language used in government and media is the one imposed by a recent colonial power, though most people speak their native African languages.
