Explanation:
HISTORICAL
Although the history of the origin of Nigeria varies from different ethnic group's perspectives, archeological eveidence revealed that Neolithic humans inhabited what is now Nigeria as far back as 12,000 B.C.
Nigeria was given it's name in the1890s by British journalist Flora Shaw, who named it after the Niger River that dominated the country's landscape.
Nigeria fell under colonial rule when the British decided that the long-standing slave trade in the region was immoral, and by 1861 the British established it's first official colony in the country. However, the official Colony and Protectorate of Nigeria wasn't established by Britain until 1914.
Colonisation brought Christianity amd Western education and values to Nigeria.
With the spread of colonial rule all over the country the different ethnic groups of Nigeria banded together and presented a united front out of fear of losing their traditional cultural values.
This resulted in the country gaining it's independence from British rule in 1960.

Across all the ethnic groups, the highest tier in the Nigerian society is made up of wealthy people, politicians and other highly educated elites.

Nigeria was colonised and ruled by the British from the 1890s to 1959.
Nigeria gained independence in 1960. After independence several military coup de etats were staged to overthrow dictatorships.

Nigerians have different forms of cultural arts and crafrs. Such as carvings, dancing and and others. Nigeria's culture has been diverse and beautiful since the beginning.
Among the food favoured by Nigerians rice is the most common staple alongside yam and cassava. Different ethnic groups each have their own peculiar staples.
