This type of border creation for the newly formed African nations created a lot of problems, problems that are still present nowadays. The reasons for the problems were that people that historically had tensions and conflicts got stuck into the same borders, ethnic groups and religious groups that were not tolerant to one another also found themselves put together, the interest and culture of the people were differing a lot, and there were multiple languages used.
