Certainly covers the later part of the 20th Century, but there were colonial wars and such going on far earlier than what is listed. |

Fitzovich is correct. The century actually starts with the latter part of the Second Boer War (1899-1902). Spanish Morocco in the 1920s is the subject of a concurrent discussion here. Both World Wars included action in Africa. The period immediately after WW2 was full of armed conflict, from the Mau-Maus to the Simbas. That's just scratching the surface. |

Not that they're going to make a fortune out of them 🤷 but good on ya! |
