Which African countries used to be English colonies?
Just as a matter of proper wording, none of them were “English Colonies”, but British Colonies. The British stared colonizing the western parts of Africa first, as they were more easily accessible by ships. As time wore on, it’s interesting to note that the British had an almost straight line from South Africa to it’s holdings in the Middle East so that goods could be transferred by land back the Great Britain almost with out ever having to leave the Empire.
