Final answer:

Ethiopia and Liberia were the two countries that remained independent after the 'Scramble for Africa.'


Step-by-step explanation:

The two countries that remained independent after Europe's 'Scramble for Africa' were Ethiopia and Liberia.

European powers colonized almost the entire African continent during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. However, Ethiopia, situated in East Africa, successfully resisted colonization and maintained its independence throughout this period. Liberia, located on the west coast of Africa, was established by freed African-American slaves and retained its independence as well.
