Description[edit | edit source]
Biafra declared independence from Nigeria in 1967 after years of ethnic, religious and economic tensions in newly independent Nigeria. A war between Nigeria and Biafra followed, which claimed up to two million lives, mostly because of famine and disease caused by the blockade of Biafran ports. Biafra surrendered in 1970.
