Solution

The correct option is B Poland, Denmark
Poland and Denmark did not have colonial control on any of the territories of Africa.Poland never formally had any colonial territories, however over its history the acquisition of such territories was at times contemplated, but never attempted. The closest Poland came to acquiring such territories was indirectly through the actions of the Duchy of Courland and Semigallia, a fief of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
