White Population: 40,000

We are continuing our list of African countries with the largest white population with Zambia that was in a very similar position to Zimbabwe, as it was also colonized by the British. During this period of colonization, many Europeans came to settle in Zambia. The official colonization started in 1888 and the territory was administered by Rhodes’ British South Africa Company. However, the interest in this country from their side was not very big, and they did not have any big plans for it, except using it mainly as a source of labour. However, the white population remains on the territory even today, and it is estimated that there are around 40,000 Europeans as descendants of 70,000 Britons who remained in the country after independence which occurred in 1964.
