Answer 1

The correct response is **Ethiopia and Liberia**. During the 1800s, Ethiopia successfully resisted colonization by European powers, notably defeating Italy at the Battle of Adwa in 1896. Liberia was founded by freed American slaves and declared its independence in 1847, making it one of the few independent African states at the time.
