That depends on what you mean with enemies and allies, and when. Traditionally, Liberia has felt closely connected to the US. However, when the Liberian Civil War started the US was not interested in getting involved. Liberia also has close ties to all its neighbours. Indeed, many of its tribes live in several countries. The state itself was founded as a response to the scramble for Africa with Britain acquiring a colony in Sierra Leone and France in the Ivory Coast .
