The City of Lagos
Nigeria Located in Western Africa, the Federal Republic of Nigeria (named for the Niger River) is the most populous country of Africa. People began settling the region as far back as 9000 BC, but it wasn't until the 9th century that the country began to flourish under the ruling of the Kanem-Bornu Empire.
British influence and control over what would become Nigeria grew through the 19th, however the country remained divided into northern and southern provinces. In the south, the economy and education expanded more quickly than the north. A series of constitutions after World War II granted Nigeria greater autonomy, and in 1960 the country gained complete independence.
Nigeria's economy is one of the fastest growing in the world and is the second largest in Africa. Nigeria has the highest population of all African countries and is the eighth most populous in the world.
