African military systems after 1900
text:
Just before the 20th century began, most of Africa, with the exception of Ethiopia, Somalia and Liberia, was under colonial rule. By the 1980s, most nations were independent. Military systems reflect this evolution in several ways: Growth of indigenous knowledge and skill in handling modern arms
Established colonial armies of mainly indigenous troops officered by Europeans
Rebellions, resistance and "mop up" operations
Weakening of European colonial power due to World War I and World War II
