Nigeria i/naɪˈdʒɪəriə/, officially the Federal Republic of Nigeria, is a federalconstitutional republic comprising 36 states and its Federal Capital Territory, Abuja. The country is located in West Africa and shares land borders with the Republic of Benin in the west, Chad and Cameroon in the east, and Niger in the north. Its coast in the south lies on theGulf of Guinea on the Atlantic Ocean. The three largest and most influential ethnic groups in Nigeria are the Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba.
The name Nigeria was taken from the Niger River running through the country. This name was coined by Flora Shaw, the future wife of Baron Lugard, a British colonial administrator, in the late 19th century. The British colonised Nigeria in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, setting up administrative structures and law while recognizing traditional chiefs. Nigeria became independent again in 1960. Several years later, it had civil war asBiafra tried to establish independence. Military governments in times of crisis have alternated with democratically elected governments.
Nigeria is roughly split half and half between Muslims in the North and Christians in the South; a very small minority practice traditional religion. Since 2002 there have been a spate of clashes, particularly in the North of the country, between government forces and the IslamistsBoko Haram, militant jihadists who seek to establish sharia law.
The people of Nigeria have an extensive history. Archaeological evidence shows that human habitation of the area dates back to at least 9000 BC.[5] The area around the Benue andCross River is thought to be the original homeland of the Bantu migrants who spread across most of central and southern Africa in waves between the 1st millennium BC and the 2nd millennium.
Nigeria is the most populous country in Africa, the seventh most populous country in the world, and the most populous country in the world in which the majority of the population isblack.[6] Its oil reserves have brought great revenues to the country. It is listed among the "Next Eleven" economies, and is a member of the Commonwealth of Nations.
ナイジェリア連邦共和国(ナイジェリアれんぽうきょうわこく)、通称ナイジェリアは、アフリカ西部に位置する連邦共和制国家で、イギリス連邦加盟国である。北にニジェール、北東にチャド湖を挟みチャド、東にカメルーン、西にベナンと国境を接する。南は大西洋のギニア湾に面し、かつては「奴隷海岸」と呼ばれた。首都はアブジャ。最大の都市はラゴス。
アフリカ最大の人口を擁する国であり、乾燥地帯でキャラバン貿易を通じてイスラム教を受容した北部と、熱帯雨林地帯でアニミズムを信仰し後にヨーロッパの影響を受けキリスト教が広がった南部との間に大きな違いがある。また、南部のニジェール川デルタでは豊富に石油を産出するが、この石油を巡って内戦や内紛が繰り返されるなど、国内対立の原因ともなっている。
