Answer:

True.

Step-by-step explanation:

The participation of the European colonial powers holding African territories during the First World War had affected a large part of Africa in one way or another. In addition to economic exploitation to finance the war efforts of the colonial powers and fighting in Africa, a further element of Africa's involvement in the war was the voluntary and forced movement of soldiers and war workers in the hope of independence.
