| Summary: | The end of the First World War in Africa occurred at different times across the continent as the German colonies capitulated and surrendered to the allied forces between 26 August 1914 and 25 November 1918.

This chapter explores different experiences across the continent and the legacy of the discussions at Versailles. |
