A) boundaries in Africa were drawn without regard to areas of ethnic groups

European boundaries of Africa were established without regard to ethic groups and were based on geographic or just arbitrary lines. this mixed ethnic groups with long histories into countries together which eventually led to conflict. This is especially true after European powers left and African groups were sorting out their own governments and power structure.
