Answer 1

To evaluate which statement is not accurate regarding independence in Africa according to historical events, we can analyze each statement:

1. **Northern Africa was the first to get their independence**: This statement is generally true as countries like Libya gained independence in the 1950s.

2. **Most of Central Africa gained their independence during the 1660's**: This statement is inaccurate. The majority of Central African countries gained independence in the 1960s, not the 1660s.

3. **Most of Northern Africa gained it during the 1970's**: This is also inaccurate. Most Northern African countries gained independence in the 1950s and 1960s, not predominantly in the 1970s.

4. **Most African countries gained their independence in the 1960's**: This statement is true as many African countries achieved independence during this decade.

Based on this analysis, the statement that is **not accurate** is:

**"Most of Central Africa gained their independence during the 1660's."**
