Kolonist\u00e9, zn\u00e1m\u00ed jako americko-liberijci, v\u0161ak vytvo\u0159ili spole\u010dnost, kter\u00e1 kop\u00edrovala nerovnost, kterou za\u017eili ve Spojen\u00fdch st\u00e1tech. Odm\u00edtli politick\u00e1 pr\u00e1va domorod\u00fdm obyvatel\u016fm Lib\u00e9rie, zn\u00e1m\u00fdm jako Kongov\u00e9, a nutili je pracovat na plant\u00e1\u017e\u00edch a kau\u010dukov\u00fdch plant\u00e1\u017e\u00edch.<\/p>\n\n
William Vacanarat Shadrach Tubman, nejd\u00e9le slou\u017e\u00edc\u00ed prezident Lib\u00e9rie, vl\u00e1dl v letech 1944 a\u017e 1971.

V\u00fdhody hospod\u00e1\u0159sk\u00e9ho rozvoje v\u0161ak nebyly sd\u00edleny rovnom\u011brn\u011b a nap\u011bt\u00ed mezi americko-liberijci a Kongy nad\u00e1le doutnalo.<\/p>\n\n

Konflikt mezi americko-liberijci a Kongy vybuchl v roce 1980 n\u00e1siln\u00fdm p\u0159evratem veden\u00fdm domorod\u00fdm voj\u00e1kem Samuelem Doem.

Dnes americko-liberijci st\u00e1le uplat\u0148uj\u00ed politick\u00fd a hospod\u00e1\u0159sk\u00fd vliv, ale ji\u017e nemaj\u00ed \u00faplnou kontrolu, jakou kdysi m\u011bli.

Star\u0161\u00ed americko-liberijci si pamatuj\u00ed \u0161\u0165astn\u00e9 dny 60. a 70. let, kdy Lib\u00e9rie za\u017e\u00edvala obdob\u00ed relativn\u00edho blahobytu a rozvoje.
