Explanation:

Colonial powers imposed artificial territorial boundaries across African regions to serve their administrative and resource-extraction goals, while structuring local economies to be dependent on the colonizing nation (focused on raw material exports rather than local self-sufficiency). Kwame Nkrumah and Jomo Kenyatta were anti-colonial leaders who worked to undo these systems, and Kenyan politicians did not create this foundational pattern of dependence and artificial borders.

Answer:

C. Colonial rule.
