Before we can define the impact of the three Atlantic Revolutions on Africa, it is necessary to look back to the previous decade before the American Revolution and discuss what led to it. History provides significant indicators that future wars and oppression of a vulnerable people often lead to nationalism and democracy in the 19th century and beyond. Due to European monarchs it would lose a large part of its territories around the world, starting from the 18th century. England would control the gates of the world for trade, which would lead to a dominated and peaceful Victorian Age. We must study the seeds of the 1763 Revolution, the American Revolution, the French Revolution, and the Haitian Revolution to adequately respond to their impact. The year 1763 AD brought an end to the tumultuous world war between the great European monarchs. The consequences of this seven-year war became the dominant theme of 1763. A world war is “a war engaged in by all or most of the principal nations of the world.” (Merriam-Webster, 2006). The Seven Years' War involved Europe's Great Britain, France, Spain, and Portugal, which were the dominant world powers on land and sea. Conflict between neighbors would spread across the globe to four of the five remaining inhabited continents. Many other governments joined this global conflict to include Prussia, Russia, Austria, Sweden, Saxony, Hanover, the Iroquois Confederation of Brunswick-Wolfenbuttel, Hesse-Kassel, Schaumburg-Lippe, and Bengal Subah. This long list of participants does not include the indigenous population of the Americas or the settlers who were on their way to “forming a more perfect union.” The birth of a new nation is imminent in 1763, as the Crown creates rolls of legislation to control its rebellion... middle of paper ......lation in Africa was just another form of absolutism and the indication coming from the world history, especially the Atlantic revolutions, should have warned them that blacks would rise up and possess their freedom on the African continent. The revolutions of the West only liberated blacks outside the African continent. Africa was put in a physical grip under white rule until the 1990s. The end of apartheid is not the end of the freedom march. Africa still needs to be economically liberated, so that it can control its own destiny and cultivate its own future.
