Solution

The correct option is C Italy
Only Liberia and Ethiopia remained free of the colonists in the Scramble for Africa. Liberia was formed in the early 19th century as a home for African Blacks repatriated from America. Ethiopia, which was ruled by Emperor Menelik, became the only country that defeated a European nation, Italy.
