In Nyasaland (now Malawi), the nationalist leader was Hastings Banda, who founded the Malawi Congress Party (MCP) in 1959. Banda played a key role in the country's struggle for independence from British colonial rule and served as the first President of Malawi from 1966 to 1994.
In Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), the nationalist leader was Robert Mugabe, who was a founding member of the Zimbabwe African National Union (ZANU). Mugabe became a prominent figure in the fight against white minority rule in Rhodesia and later served as the first Prime Minister of Zimbabwe from 1980 to 1987 and then as President from 1987 until he was ousted in a coup in 2017.
