Just what is a 'British Subject'? Harry Whitehead studied at Queen Mary, University of London Answered Mar 4 2015 There are two main definitions - the historic one and the current one under British nationality law. Historically, a British subject was any person either born or naturalised within the United Kingdom or British Empire colonies and dominions, although not British protectorates (Egypt and Nepal for example). In other words, any citizen under the sovereignty of the Crown. |
michelz:The Igbo are the second largest group of people living in southern Nigeria. They are socially and culturally diverse, consisting of many subgroups. Although they live in scattered groups of villages, they all speak one language. The Igbo have no common traditional story of their origins. Historians have proposed two major theories of Igbo origins. One claims the existence of a core area, or "nuclear Igboland." The other claims that the Igbo are descended from waves of immigrants from the north and the west who arrived in the fourteenth or fifteenth century. Three of these are the Nri, Nzam, and Anam. European contact with the Igbo began with the arrival of the Portuguese in the mid-fifteenth century. At first the Europeans confined themselves to slave trade on the Niger Coast. At this point, the main item of commerce provided by the Igbo was slaves, many of whom were sent to the New World. After the abolition of the slave trade in 1807, British companies pushed beyond the coastal areas and aggressively pursued control of the interior. The Protectorate of Southern Nigeria, created in 1900, included Igboland. Until 1960, Nigeria remained a British colony, and the Igbo were British subjects. On October 1, 1960, Nigeria became an independent nation structured as a federation of states. Read more: http://www.everyculture.com/wc/Mauritania-to-Nigeria/Igbo.html#ixzz4q0C2T5mX |
PFRB:Igbo land is in Cameroon! Biafra was founded in Cameroon! there is no doubt about that! |
dlondonbadboy:Igbo is not Nigerian, igbo is Cameroonian, igbo is slave dealer that produced slave to Portuguese in 1500, and that's where igbo come and ambushed the bini people in the bush kidnapped and sell to Portuguese in Cameroon, that was where igbo sneak in to Nigeria territory.....late 1500 AD! |
PFRB:The deported Jew from portugal to Sao Tome in 1492 get in torch to the coastal land of Equatorial guinea and Gabon and Cameroon which around 350 kilometers! This is where igbo Judaism, Jew's tradition, culture and customs originated from, igbo were not Jew! |
Paulpaulpaul:Jewish populations have existed in the area even before the country was established, back to the Roman era (province of Lusitania ), or even before – an attested Jewish presence in Portuguese territory, however, can only be documented since 482 CE. With the fall of the Roman Empire, Jews were persecuted by the Visigoths and other European Christian kingdoms which controlled the area after that period. Inquisition In 1492, Spain expelled its Jewish population as part of the Spanish Inquisition. Tens of thousands of Spanish Jews subsequently fled to Portugal, where King John II granted them asylum in return for payment. However, the asylum was only temporary—after eight months, the Portuguese government decreed the enslavement of all Jews who had not yet left the country. In 1493, King John deported several hundred Jewish children to the newly discovered colony of São Tomé, where many of them perished. |
In 1469, Femào Gomes rented the rights of African exploration for five years. Under his direction,in 1471, the Portuguese reached modern Ghana and settled in Lamina(the mine), later renamed Elmina. They had finally reached a country with an abundance of gold, hence the historical name of " Gold coast" that Elmina would eventually receive. In 1472, Fermào do po discovered the island that would bear his name for centuries (now Bioko) and an estuary abundant in Shrimp (Portuguese Camarao,), giving it's name to Cameroon. Soon after, the equator was crossed by Europeans. Portugal established a base in Sao Tome that after 1485 was settled with Criminals. After 1497, expelled Spanish and Portuguese Jews also found a safe haven there. Resume:- i. Igbo is Cameroonian ii. Igbo controversial Jews tradition, custom and culture originated from expelled Spanish and Portuguese Jews in Sao Tome 1497 iii. Biafra is founded By Portuguese in the present day Cameroon 1500 during slave trade. jeux close! Oladeebo.

Today, billions of quartz crystals are used to make oscillators for watches, clocks, radios, televisions, electronic games, computers, cell phones, electronic meters, and GPS equipment.
|
Uses for Quartz Crystals One of the most amazing properties of quartz is the ability of its crystals to vibrate at a precise frequencies. These frequencies are so precise that quartz crystals can be used to make extremely accurate time-keeping instruments and equipment that can transmit radio and television signals with precise and stable frequencies.
|
Uses in the Petroleum Industry Quartz sand has a high resistance to being crushed. In the petroleum industry, sand slurries are forced down oil and gas wells under very high pressures in a process known as hydraulic fracturing. This high pressure fractures the reservoir rocks, and the sandy slurry injects into the fractures. The durable sand grains hold the fractures open after the pressure is released. These open fractures facilitate the flow of natural gas into the well bore.
|
Uses of Quartz as a Foundry Sand Quartz is very resistant to both chemicals and heat. It is therefore often used as a foundry sand. With a melting temperature higher than most metals, it can be used for the molds and cores of common foundry work. Refractory bricks are often made of quartz sand because of its high heat resistance. Quartz sand is also used as a flux in the smelting of metals.
|
Uses of Quartz as an Abrasive The high hardness of quartz, seven on the Mohs Scale, makes it harder than most other natural substances. As such it is an excellent abrasive material. Quartz sands and finely ground silica sand are used for sand blasting, scouring cleansers, grinding media, and grit for sanding and sawing.

Quartz glass sand: High-purity quartz sandstone suitable for the manufacture of high-quality glass. "Glass sand" is a sandstone that is composed almost entirely of quartz grains. Pictured here is a specimen of the Oriskany Sandstone from Hancock, West Virginia. In a few locations, the Oriskany is over 99% pure quartz. Much of it has been used for container glass, but some of it has been selected for use in making lenses for the largest telescopes. Specimen is about four inches (ten centimeters across).

StarOfDavid:why you people love lie:- Bight of Biafra From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Bight of Biafra (also known as the Bight of Bonny) is a bight off the West African coast, in the easternmost part of the Gulf of Guinea. The Bight of Biafra, or Mafra (named after the town Mafra in southern Portugal), between Capes Formosa and Lopez, is the most eastern part of the Gulf of Guinea; it contains the islands Fernando Po [Equitorial Guinea], Prince’s and St Thomas’s. The name Biafra - as indicating the country - fell into disuse in the later part of the 19th century A 1710 map indicates that the region known as "Biafar" (Biafra) was located in present day Cameroon
