The brits did not create america in the same way as Nigeria.
America is a country of immigrants that fled catholic prosecution from europe.
The brits only colonized them.
the States in the almagamated america of 40+ numbers was created by who the native indians,?

We are deviating from the issue of discourse. Did the british call you Niger royal company/Nigeria because they loved you so much?

Did Leopold colonize congo/leopoldville because he love the congolese?

Columbus goal was to reach asia to trade directly with them without the arab middlemen by travelling west. He stumbled on america. No they didn't love the Native americans, they exploited them, migrations from europe swelled America. They knew they were going to live in it forever, so they delinked themselves from the British crown and built it. Did the British build your Nigeria?

India and pakistan are prosperous today because they knew the British put them together to have them destroy themselves, they seperated and have today become relatively prosperous nations. Why can't we take a cue from them?

So we shouldn't ask questions because lugard is dead? We should just take things like that before it has always been like that. If all men thought like you, people will be contented with being slave because they were born slaves in the 18th century.

Nobody was born a slave , they were captured and made slaves

DID THE BRITISH PUT YOU TOGETHER WITH THE OTHER PEOPLE WITH OPPOSING VALUES BECAUSE THEY LOVED YOU. THAT'S THE TITLE OF THE THREAD? IT'S VERY SIMPLE, ANSWER IT AND HIT YOUR HISTORY BOOK FOR RESEARCH ON AMERICAN INDEPENDENCE, THERE ARE NO SIMILARITIES BETWEEN THE TWO COUNTRIES. ONE IS A PROUD NATION OF THE BRAVE, THE OTHER IS A GEOGRAPHICAL EXPRESSION FILLED WITH DUNDERHEADS WHO WANT TO LIVE FOREVER LEGITIMIZING THEIR SLAVE MASTERS CREATION LIKE YOU ARE DOING.

and I am asking the same question!
did the British put the "Yankees" and the indees together because they loved the indees and the 'yankees'.
unfortunately america is a geographical expression!
and if you can't seat down and see the answer to your question of whether the British had love for its colonies all over the world!e.g.
Australia
new Zealand
China
Thailand
India
bangladesh
the united states of america
Ghana
Nigeria
Gambia
and so on and so forth!
ask yourself was it for love!

THESE DUNDERHEADS GO KILL PERSON. HAVE YOU READ THE CORRESPONDENCE BETWEEN YOUR LUGARD AND THE BRITISH CROWN ON NIGERIA? HAVE YOU EVER HEARD ABOUT THE WORD 'ARCHIVES'? SO WE SHOULDN'T ASK ABOUT WHAT ARISTOTLE, PLATO AND SOCRATES WERE THINKING ABOUT GOVERNANCE AND OTHER PRINCIPLES AND THEORIES THAT EVEN AFFECT YOUR LIFE TODAY BECAUSE THEY LIVED BEFORE CHRIST?


OH DUNDERHEADS ABOUND IN THE GEOGRAPHICAL EXPRESSION.

THE BRITISH DID NOT PUT THE YANKEES AND INDEES TOGETHER. THE FOREFATHERS OF THE YANKEES STUMBLED ON THE INDEES ON THEIR WAY TO ASIAN FROM EUROPE AND THEN BUILT IT. USE YOUR HEAD.

BTW ALMOST EVERY SUCESSFUL COUNTRY ON YOUR LIST 'MODIFIED' THEIR TERRITORIES( E.G INDO-PAKI) AFTER THE BRITS LEFT IT MESSED UP. THE FAILED STATES LIKE NIGERIA MAINTAINED THEIR MESSED UP STATE.

at Vulu the op
The house niggass are so fond of their master that they will do anything for him, they can even slaughter their own imidiate family just to please the white man, just look at how that slave is jumping from pillar to post just to prove the brutish man right for enslaving him,VULU I will encourage you to go and see the movie called django unchained, you will understand better, focus your attention on they character played by Samuel l Jackson you will understand where that fool is going to, the worst part of it is that they know very little about their own history, now India was ca colony of the bruts they fought for independence and got it and proceeded to destroy the vestiges of colonialism and the nations that rose after are far better than thus zoo, look at Pakistan, does almighty America talk nonsense in front of Pakistan? Let alone India? Don't mind those slaves.

Nigeria and many other countries did not modify its territory and got their independence without bloodshed.
