What countries held and controlled land in africa?

In 1914, the following European nations held territories, or colonies, on the continent of Africa: Belgium, Portugal, Germany, France, Britain, Italy and Spain.  Belgium's colony was the region known as the Congo (referred to as Belgian Congo), currently the Democratic Republic of Congo, and called Zaire in the decades after independence.  Portuguese colonies included modern-day Angola, Mozambique, and Portuguese Guinea.  German colonies consisted of current-day Namibia and Cameroon, and Togo.  French colonies were Algeria, Morocco, much of West Africa (a region that currently consists of Mali, Ivory Coast, Mauritania, Burkina Faso, Senegal, and Niger), French Equatorial Guinea, and Madagascar.

(Make sure you summarize this, teachers do check lol, find references to back it up, always go above and beyond, makes the assignment look good, continue researching, this is just a snippet of what has happened, just to give you a head start. ) I hope this helps. :)
