Africa’s Path to Federation and New Republics
A 1958 survey notes Africa’s moves toward self rule and regional unions. It lists Sekou Toure’s Guinea and Ghana, Liberia’s Tubman, Sudan’s Abboud, and calls for a West African Federation including Ghana and Guinea. It outlines British and French territories and pushes toward independence by 1960.
