Zimbabwe was home to the Great Zimbabwe civilization before becoming a British colony known as Southern Rhodesia. It gained independence in 1980 after a long liberation struggle. Under Robert Mugabe’s rule, Zimbabwe faced economic collapse and political repression. Recent years have seen efforts to rebuild its economy and governance, though challenges remain.
