the 1880s
the 1930s

The 1960s is known as the "Year of Africa" era, with over 20 African countries gaining independence from European imperial powers during this decade. The 1880s marked the start of formal European colonization of Africa (Scramble for Africa), the 1930s saw very few independence movements succeed, and the 1990s had mostly remaining small territories gain independence, far fewer than the 1960s.
