Why was it not always possible to completely remove colonial institutions after decolonization?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because some institutional continuity could be needed for administration law security and revenue

The direct answer is option A. Decolonization changes political authority, but a new state still needs working systems for administration, law, security and revenue. Step by step: the colonial government leaves or loses power; hospitals, courts, offices, police systems, records and tax arrangements may still be operating; suddenly removing every structure could create disorder and interrupt public services; the new government may therefore retain some procedures or institutions; at the same time, it can change their purpose, leadership and discriminatory rules to serve citizens rather than colonial control. Option A is correct because it explains practical institutional continuity while allowing reform. Option B is wrong because institutions do not all disappear in one day. Option C is wrong because every functioning state needs some institutions to make and apply decisions. Option D is wrong because colonial institutions were not always democratic; many served unequal and coercive rule. Keeping a structure temporarily does not mean accepting all colonial values. Exam cue: decolonization often combines continuity of administration with change in power and purpose.
