Answer:

Because Europe simply lacked the funds to even maintain the colonies, the 2nd world war was a way to devastating to the economies of each country and rendered them penniless, and war-torn. How these countries gained independence varied, from the Indochina war, ie vietnams war for independence, to Britain leaving India,
