RE: ADSactly History: Emergence Of Nigeria As A Political Entity [Part 1]

in #history5 years ago

It's an interesting line you're offering us now, @samminator. The phenomenon of the enslavement of an important part of the African population not only had terrible effects, but also some fundamental historical consequences in the ethnic-cultural formation of several peoples of America.
Knowing the political-administrative evolution of Nigeria will enrich our world political culture. I would say that these processes of political unification, beyond functioning as a control mechanism (for foreign or internal forces) by centralization, is an unstoppable step in the political modernization of peoples. The emergence of the so-called "nation-state" was a necessity in the political evolution of humanity; then that stage has been enriched by federalism and decentralization.
Pay attention to your information on the matter. Thank you.

I agree with you on this, Jose. The history of Nigeria will not be complete without mentioning the enslavement part... no doubt, this formed the basis of our history in the pre-colonial/colonial era.
Thanks for coming around buddy
