	Nigeria (08/05)
		Nigeria was granted full independence in October 1960, as a federation of three regions (northern, western, and eastern) under a constitution that provided for a parliamentary form of government.
		From the outset, Nigeria's ethnic, regional, and religious tensions were magnified by the significant disparities in economic and educational development between the south and the north.
		State and local governmental bodies demand access to this "windfall" revenue, creating a tug-of-war between the federal government, which seeks to control spending, and state governments desirous of augmented budgets preventing the government from making provision for periods of lower oil prices.

	United States Policy Toward Nigeria (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-08)
		Nigeria is entering a crucial period as its civilian and military elites work often at cross purposes to achieve their stated objective of civilian democratic rule.
		You state that the next 12 months of the transition program are crucial for Nigeria but that the process lacks credibility because of the exclusionary way it has been conceived and implemented, particularly with the registration process of the political parties.
		Nigeria has played a leading role in the establishment of ECOWAS itself and the OAU and has been, in that sense, a flag bearer on many occasions for Africa-centered policy directives and statements, however imperfectly they may or may not work.

	United States overlooks Nigeria at its own peril ( Nigeria, Africa & World News)
		Nigeria has about 66 million Muslims (more than Egypt), most of whom have provided a strong center of moderate Islam in West Africa.
		Nigeria's troubles in the Muslim north are coupled with serious unrest in the oil-rich, largely Christian south, where economic rather than religious grievances are the driving force.
		As with Afghanistan in the early 1990s, troubling signs are emanating from Nigeria; it is not fair to Nigerians or Americans to again ignore a rising Taliban.

	AllRefer.com - Nigeria - Early States Before 1500 \| Nigerian Information Resource
		Long before 1500, much of present-day Nigeria was divided into states, which can be identified with the modern ethnic groups that trace their history to the origins of these states.
		In addition, numerous small states to the west and south of Lake Chad were absorbed or displaced in the course of the expansion of Kanem, which was centered to the northeast of Lake Chad.
		Other states probably existed as well, but oral traditions and the absence of archaeological data do not permit an accurate dating of their antiquity.
