True or False. Decades of European colonial rule left strong marks on African religious life, governmental structures, and languages.

This is true, correct.

Explanation:

Modern African states have today large Christian populations, their constitutions and political systems often follow Western models, and English, French or Portuguese - the languages of the old masters - is usually the official language in many African countries where numerous dialects are spoken, thus providing a basis for unity and governance. Such is the heritage of decades of European colonial rule over Africa.
