The African economy suffered during the colonial period from exploitation and control in favor of the colonial countries, and after the colonialism, it witnessed a legacy of political and economic fluctuations and poverty, but it tried hard to unite African efforts to face its multiple problems. With the end of the eighties of the twentieth century, most of African countries turned towards the principles of capitalism and economic freedom, to implement economic reform programs and open up to the economies of other world countries. Then the biggest transformation in African history occurred when the sustainable development agenda for Africa 2063 was set, which is a plan that aims to bring about a political, economic and social transformation of the African continent during a period of 50 years beginning in 2013 and ending by 2063. This study aims to track the path of the African economy from the continent’s independence until the end of the second decade of the 21st century, with a focus on macroeconomic performance such as (economic growth rates, foreign investment, poverty and inequality ... etc.).
