Nigeria
Climate of Nigeria
As in most of West Africa, Nigeria's climate is characterized by strong latitudinal zones, becoming progressively drier as one moves north from the coast. Rainfall is the key climatic variable, and there is a marked alternation of wet and dry seasons in most areas.
Alcoholic beverages in Nigeria
Palm wine (fermented from sap of palm tree, its alcohol content can reach up to 12%, and in some areas it's spiked with other types of alcohol. If you decide to try it, buy it from a producer that you trust).
Administrative structure of Nigeria
Nigeria is divided into thirty-six states and one Federal Capital Territory, which are further sub-divided into 774 Local Government Areas (LGAs). The plethora of states, of which there were only three at independence, reflect the country's tumultuous history and the difficulties of managing such a heterogeneous national entity at all levels of government.
