How the Chadic Peoples Divide Nigeria in Two

  • Who are the Chadic Peoples, and how do they divide one of the largest countries on the planet? Although there are many reasons for the North-South divide in the country of Nigeria, the main cultural discrepancies are the vast ethnic and religious differences between the Christian Niger-Congo peoples of the South and the Chadic peoples of the North who include the likes of the Hausa ethnic group, and in many ways are more culturally similar to North Africa than their own neighbors.
    Be sure to let me know your thoughts on this incredibly unique and under-appreciated group of people, who stand in out in almost every aspect. Thanks for watching!

      Because my dear, kind people are usually humble and quieter. Ironically many people find confidence attractive and assume those her bleat loudest are confident, but no, they ate usually the self loathing bad boys.

    Masaman Nice work! The most interesting and one of the more widely studied Chadic language is the Marghi language spoken in Southern Borno. It has only 2 native vowels and up to 84 consonant phonemes, the most out of any living language today.
    Chadic branch of the Afro-asiatic language is the most diverse of the Afro-Asiatic family having well over half of the languages in the family. Of the 374 Afro-Asiatic languages attested by Ethnologue, 195 belong to the Chadic branch.
    I don't think Chadic people represent just 20% of Nigeria's population. The Hausas alone account for 21% of Nigeria's population, not to mention that there is an additional 100+ ethnolinguistic groups in Nigeria that speak a Chadic language. I would estimate that somewhere around 25-33% of Nigerians are native speakers.
    With matters of religion, Chadic ethnic groups aren't just muslim. Some are predominantly muslim like the Hausa, Karekare, Bade, etc. Yes, some even practice traditional beliefs. Quite a number practice Christianity like the Kamwe, Angas, Marghi, and Kilba. In Adamawa state in the Northeast, many Chadic speaking peoples resisted the Fulani Jihadists by fighting back and/or taking refuge in the mountains and would later adopt christianity from the missionaries.
    With religion, it's also important to talk about assimilation. One angle is the "Hausanization" of the various Chadic peoples, especially those in Bauchi state (most of whom are muslim). There is also "Kanurinization" of muslim Chadic speakers in the Northeast (Borno and Yobe). For example in Borno state, although the Putai people number in the hundreds of thousands, the Putai language is considered almost extinct as it's only maintained by a few dozens elderly people.
    The R haplogroup is also found in varying frequency in neighboring Nilo-Saharan and Niger-congo speaking peoples as well. The phenotypic stereotype of Hausas in Nigeria especially for males is that they are tall, slim, and dark.
    The Sokoto caliphate was actually founded by Fulanis after overthrowing the Hausa sarkins(kings). The Hausa states(Biram, Zazzau, Gobir, etc) were never unified until this. The Hausas had been muslim for centuries prior, but traditional religious practices were still practiced. The jihad introduced a more puritanical conservative form of islam.
    Ironically enough, even though Fulanis were the ruling aristocratic class(e.g. Sullubawa clan of Kano), they became assimilated in many parts of Nigeria except for one region. The Sokoto caliphate wasn't just in Hausa territory, but also territories of ethnic minorities in the Northeast and Central parts of Nigeria. The Fulanis in Northern Nigeria assimilated with the Hausas so much that many can't even speak their language anymore. This has to do with the nomadic nature of the Fulanis. The semi-pastoralists/nomadic Fulanis are more likely to speak their language and hold on to their way of life as they are not integrated into the urban population. In the Northeast (Adamawa and Gombe), most have maintained their language and culture.

    Fascinating! Here is the usual list of my suggestions (Note: this is a copy of the same list I put in the "Ottoman Slave Trade" video yesterday)
    1. The genetics of Aboriginal Australians (that'd be a really good one!)
    2. World Wars before the 20th century (Seven Years War, Napoleanic Wars, etc.). The Napoleanic Wars specifically would be good as I think a lot of people need clarification with that. I'd suggest doing it like the Prussia video.
    3. Uratu/Kingdom of Van-Iron Age
    4. What if the two hemispheres united as a single country (Your choice of North/South, East/West, with the equator and prime meridian the "border line").
    5. Asatru-Modern Norse Religious Revival (mainly in Iceland)
    6. Neolithic Cultural Complexes ("Right before Sumeria...")
    7. Scythians
    8. What's the difference between Syria and Assyria?
    9. Jainism
    10. The Lesser Known Uralic Peoples in Karelia
    11. Garamantes
    12. Tonga and other countries never colonized by the Europeans.
    As usual, hope that helps!

But yes the largest ethnic group occupying the region are chadic hausa, and their language unite the region thus many think we all chadic hausa but we are not. Even the so called Hausa are actually either mixed with Fulani, Kanuri or other ethnicity. Eg Like myself though i always consider myself Hausa im actually not full blooded Hausa. My mertanal and paternal grandma's are Fulani mixed Hausa and likewise both of my grandfathers. I sometimes wish I'm full blooded Hausa but it's seems such don't exist anymore.

    Hey, Masaman, love your vids.
    A humble request: Please make a video solely dedicated to criticising/debunking the incredibly dumb concepts of race and ethnicity that's so prevalent in the US right now. Americans seem to be completely ignorant and uneducated about both of these concepts.
    I've legit seen people numerous of times refer to black Americans as an their own "ethnicity", for example. Not to mention the whole concept of "Latino" as an ethnicity, which to me is absolutely crazy, as you can have only European heritage and live in SA, but still be considered having a "Latino" ethnicity.
    Then you have the idea of lumping together and generalising a whole continent as "white" or (east)"Asian", while the ethnic diversity in both these regions are massive.
    So, please make a video about something like this, or just explaining what "ethnicity"(vs. say, nationality, culture, skin colour) means in general, because I'm getting so tired of seeing all this missinformation and ignorance on the web.

    "The extreme ways they are distinguishable from other Africans". There are no extreme differences from other Africans let alone other Nigerians. It seems that way to a non African because you read in books that their language has a different family and you look at the millenia years old genetic data and see that there is a minute genetic difference but it is not uncommon in Nigeria to have a hausa neighbor and not think anything of it. Nobody is looking at genetic data or linguistic studies in Nigeria especially in big cities like Lagos where everybody lives next to everybody. Fun fact: The richest black man in the world, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, is a Hausa man.

    "Moscow (AsiaNews) - A recently published book has generated a lot of buzz in Russia. Titled The Great Batu Khan, founder of Russian Statehood (Великий хан Батый - основатель Российской государственности), the tome is by Gennady A. Tjundeshev (Haramos), a historian at Khakassia State University (in Asian Russia, where Tatar-Mongols hail from).
    Its publication has revived the memory of the times of the "Tartar yoke", when Russia was under Asian rule for more than two centuries, between the 13th and the 15th centuries. It has also inspired some comparisons, especially with President Putin, who was re-elected on 18 March and has acquired the status of tsar and great leader.
    The great Batu Khan was the grandson of Genghis Khan, who, in 1240, imposed the dominion of the so-called "Golden Horde" on the principalities of ancient Kievan Rus, which disappeared from history as a separate entity.
    The Tatars were defeated for the first time in 1380 in the Battle of Kulikovo. Dmitry Donskoj, Prince of Moscow, led the way inspired by Sergius of Radonezh. Eventually, the city of Kyiv (Kiev) was against itself by the 17th century, but Asian domination ended only in 1480 thanks to the great prince Ivan III, father of the ideology of Moscow as the Third Rome. According to Tjundeshev’s interpretation, Russia has never freed itself from the legacy of the Tatar Khans; instead, it has made it the basis of its civilisation and state organisation.
    The idea is not particularly new. Napoleon, contemplating Moscow burning in 1812 from the walls of the Kremlin, uttered his famous words: “Scratch a Russian, you find a Tatar”. Many historians recognise the importance of the rule of the Golden Horde in the development of Russian society. The word money, dénʹgi (деньги), comes from Mongolian and survives in the memory of the taxes that Russians had to pay to the Khans to obtain formal diplomas, Jarliq (ярлык), which today means label, price tag, in modern Russian. Thus, today’s Russia is more the offspring of the Golden Horde than Kievan Rus. Tsar Ivan the Terrible, who conquered the last Kazan khanate in the 1500s, incorporated the main Mongolian leaders into the Russian administration. The tsar of "Holy Russia", to whom many today compare the reigning president (Ivan IV and Putin IV), dropped out of government for a whole year, putting one of his Mongol khans, Simeon Bekbulatovich, in his place.
    On 19 April, in an interview with Radio Svoboda, Tjundeshev reiterated his thesis. "The Golden Horde introduced the imperial spirit to Russia, and Batu Khan was the true founder of Russian statehood [. . .]. The mindset of Russians is mainly Asian. Even if the population is of European stock, only a small minority think within European parameters. This is why,” says the Tatar scholar, “it is so difficult for Russians to learn to be free; they always need a strong hand to rule them.”
    “In the Russian Duma everyone always votes as the president wants, like in the Kurultáj of Genghis Khan. The founder of the Mongol Empire at the beginning of the 13th century was in reality a very advanced man for his time, able to adapt to different situations and different cultures, including religions. From the Tatars come nations such as China, India, Turkey and Russia, which embrace different faiths like Confucianism, Islam and Orthodox Christianity.”" Putin heir to the Mongol Grand Khans

I believe a united Nigeria has more to offer than just a united landlocked region. But for that to happen we must focus on the diversifying the economy. Both Arabs and white men brought technology and religion to Naija, but we Nigerians chose to keep the religion and throw away the technology.

    Chadic is a independent group within Afroasiatic, it doesn't form a subgroup with Berber and there is no special relationship between them. Chadic is from Africa it wasn't introduced from Asia. Masaman you said that most northern Nigerians belong to haplogroup R1b however I've not seen evidence which confirms this. Most northern Nigerian ethnic groups have not been tested but based on the few samples from the Hausa ethnic group, the majority of the Hausa don't belong to R1b. You also claimed that Chadic speaking people do not belong to haplogroups A, B and E, which is absolutely false. These haplogroups can be found at a combined frequency of 59.4% in Nigerian Hausa (Hirbo 2011).

However, there is some evidence albeit limited from studies on the Hausa, which show that R1b doesn't predominate. The overall frequencies of non-R1b haplogroups in samples from Hausa is higher; 80% (Cruciani et al., 2010) and 61% (Torres et al., 2012).

      Northern Nigerian Muslims are the extremist ones, the southern Muslims pretty much live secular lives hand in hand with the Christians

      Yoruba are majority Muslim, too. Why aren't there extremist Yoruba?
