What effect has imperialism in africa had on the borders of african nations today?

I believe the answer is: They are based on the arbitrary borders of old European empires

African continent was colonized by different european empire. To avoid conflicts among the european, they divided africa into several territories and dtermine which country has the jurisdiction over each territories. After African nations gained independence, they still use this separation as borders to differentiate one country with another.

explanation:

first of all, it's important to say that the book we shall not be moved, written by joan dash, is about the first strike of women in the united states in the year 1909. the best historical detail to clarify the reader's undertanding is the phrase "general strike". this strike involved women working at a garment factory who decided to protest   long working hours, low wages and brutal conditions. this strike became known as "the new york shirtwaist strike" or "the uprising of the 20,000". the strike mostly involved jewish women who did not speak english or who had a basic knowledge of the english language. finally, the strike went on from november 1909 until february 1910.
