Nigeria is a federal constitutional republic in West Africa which is bordered by the Republic of Beni, Chad, Cameroon, Niger, and the Gulf of Guinea. From 1967 to 1970 it was in a state of civil war with the attempted seccession of Biafra. Biafra was eventually reintegrated, but it hung around long enough to issue some of its own currency.
