Africa had changed a lot in the 20 year period because there were many great leaders who were trying and working hard to lead their nation to freedom. One of the reasons that this was possible was because the people that were governing them were staring to lose power because of the 2 world wars.
Another reason that Africa had changed was because some changes were necessary such as boosting up the economy and trying to fix what the white people had ruined for them. One major driving force that led these people to their independence was their national pride.
There were a couple of leaders to help their country gain independence. Kwame Nkrumah helped Ghana gain independence. Like many great leaders, he had to be arrested a countless of times but he managed to accomplish many things this way.
Jomo Kenyatta was also another great leader. He helped his country gain independence which was named after him for recognition and being a hero.
