Kenya: Colonial Struggle to Vibrant Democracy
Kenya's history spans thousands of years, with ancient human ancestors. Arab and European traders arrived in the 7th century, followed by British colonization (1895-1963). Jomo Kenyatta led independence movement, becoming first president in 1964. Daniel arap Moi's rule (1978-2002) was marked by repression and corruption. Democratization began in 1991, with Mwai Kibaki's presidency (2002-2013) bringing reforms. Uhuru Kenyatta (2013-2022) navigated corruption scandals. Kenya remains East Africa's economic hub, with a growing tech sector and diverse culture.
