The Ewe people inhabit the territory equivalent roughly to the south-eastern quarter of Ghana and the southern half of TOGO. The EWE country is bounded by the rivers MONO and VOLTA and extends from the Atlantic coast inland up to about latitude 7. 6’N. in the east and latitude 7. 20’N. in the west. Across the south eastern boundary line a related people – the FON of BENIN (formerly DAHOMEY).The EWE people have not always lived in their present home. Their traditions recall a migration from the east – more precisely KETU a YORUBA town in modern BENIN. KETU is also called AMEDZOFE or MAWUFE in the accounts. KETU was founded by the YORUBA people by the fourteenth century at the latest. In it lived besides the forebears of the EWE, the YORUBA and the ancestors of the AJA, FON, and GA-DANGME. It was the expansion of the YORUBA people that pushed the EWE and related peoples westward

This is wat we call super-imposition. The benin have the same claim to Yorubas and the Igbos can claim the Edo in turn and Yoruba too.

The Ewe (Eʋeawó "Ewe people", Eʋedukɔ́ "Ewe nation"[1]) are a people located in the southeast corner of Ghana, east of the Volta River, in an area now described as the Volta Region, in southern Togo and western Benin. They speak the Ewe language (Eʋegbe) and are related to other speakers of[b] Gbe languages, such as, the Fon, Gen, Phla Phera, and the Aja people of Togo and Benin.[[/b]/quote]

But to be real, The Yoruba empire (Oyo) actually extended to Benin, Togo and eastern Ghana where they fought the Ashantes and defeated them but did not bother rule them.

THE EPIC BATTLE BETWEEN THE YORUBAS AND THE ASHANTIS AT ATAKPAME (PRESENT DAY TOGO). IT IS POPULARLY KNOWN AS "THE BATTLE OF ATAKPAME"

Where is Itsekiri, Isoko or Uhrobo in that map? Exactly! The map also took into account the ethnic population and origin. Hence, Uhrobo was grouped as Benin and Itsekiri was grouped as Yoruba.

But it is a LINGUISTIC MAP not a Territorial map

Eziachi:
Ijaw is definetly not joining us Igbos or Biafra. Let them join someone else or form their own nation. Most European nation are three times smaller than Ijaw. But Annang, Ibibio and Efik are definitely welcomed if its want they want and terms aggreable to all with an open eyes and mind.
Ijaw with Igbo? forget it.

Toaskarity:
my friend then ask yourself! would theywant to? i think if there is any possible way to carve out in the ss the ones that are igbo(i didnt knw much of map)then good but you know at this point nothing will make ijaw/some of the ss join igbo again! likewise will they wont join yoruba(lastime i heard they carry gun and attack a yoruba village)
as of middle belt, their own easy but kwara state go be wahala!

@mcleo007, u must stop corrupting innocent minds or else d devils gnna land in ya bed sha n rave your bakside. Yourba with Yoruba, Igbo with Igbo, dat must be d trend.  

Hey dude, aint no devil gonna snitch on me. Inter-tribal daing is quite healthy.

For those saying yoruba gurls aint clean; your partly right cos it largely affects a great percentage of our girls. Guess it has to do with our world view. But then, that does not attribute to why we love to date igbo chicks. Just cant figure that aspect ye
