9. After decolonization Africa faced some challenges, such as transform African economies and political structures to bring about true autonomy and development. I believe the hardest one is being African unity. Because Africa has been colonized by many countries, so the whole country has been split into many regions, and the beliefs and culture of each part are different. Divided made them weak; only united, Africa could become one of the greatest forces for good in the world.

Lack of support at home, mounting fatalies and wounded, and failure to sustain any kind of momentum against the Communist forces is what ultimately caused the US to throw in the towel.
Media’s tendency toward negative reporting helped to undermine support for the war in the United States.
