Answer 1

The most relevant similarity among the independence movements in Ghana, Kenya, and Algeria is "lingering tension from colonial occupation."

While it is true that all three countries experienced significant tension due to their colonial pasts, the specifics of the independence struggles varied widely, particularly regarding the effectiveness of nonviolent protests and the colonial powers involved (Ghana was a British colony, Kenya was also under British control, while Algeria was a French colony). Therefore, the lingering impact of colonial rule is a common thread that ties their movements together.
