Home›State›States of NigeriaGroupStates of NigeriaThis group collects the first-level administrative divisions of Nigeria carried under the Geography atlas's States or Territories type, the states the atlas records at this level. Membership follows each division's own existing associated-with link to Nigeria, already recorded on the division's own entity, so grouping by country here reorganises how the States or Territories: State subcategory is browsed rather than adding a new claim about any single division. A reader looking for a specific Nigerian state can go straight to this group instead of scanning all 127 divisions across nine countries on one page. Divisions of other countries the atlas covers at this same administrative level, among them the United States, India, Brazil, Mexico, Australia, Germany, Venezuela and Malaysia, sit in their own separate groups at the same level rather than here.FactsBrowse BySourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonGovernment FormWell-attestedFederal Republic 1Browse ByAll States of NigeriaStates of Nigeria13 entriesStates of NigeriaFilter Results15 entriesCountryAllNigeria (13)Administrative Division TypeAllStates of Nigeria (13)Population BandAll11,302,748 to 241,066,874 (1)3,594,363 to 5,709,444 (7)5,766,030 to 11,233,263 (5)Area BandAll23,863.65 to 72,724 sq km (3)55 to 6,097.19 sq km (3)6,206 to 23,265.23 sq km (7)Admission or Founding EraAll1967 (5)1976 (2)1987 (2)1991 (4)ContinentAllAfrica (13)Capital CityAllIbadan (1)Kano (1)Port Harcourt (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 15Akwa Ibom StateState5 linksAnambra StateState7 linksCross River StateState5 linksDelta StateState6 linksEbonyi StateState3 linksEdo StateState5 linksEnugu StateState5 linksImo StateState5 linksKaduna StateState5 linksKano StateState5 linksKatsina StateState5 linksLagos StateState5 linksOyo StateState5 linksRivers StateState5 linksTaraba StateState3 linksSources1.
