Answer 1

One of the consequences of ethnic rivalries in African nations in recent years have been widespread civil conflict. With colonization, many European powers drew borders which had never previously existed and when de-colonization happened, many rival ethnic groups were mixed together or lived in areas where they had never previously lived together and this caused an uproar of tension. Some tribes were also favored by the European powers, while others were treated poorly and this continued to reinforce tension.
