Many African countries have English as an official language primarily due to the historical influence of British colonialism. During the period of European imperial expansion, Britain established colonies across the continent. The English language was introduced and institutionalized through administration, education, and law, and it remained an official language post-independence because it served as a neutral lingua franca among ethnically diverse populations.
