Nigeria

Many of the current problems and political realities of modern Nigeria can be traced to the specters of colonialism and the ideological split between the southern coastal and northern inland regions. To the south, secular governments and urban development contrast strongly with the rural landscape peppered with small villages that dominates much of the north. This wilderness is home to various threats, including separatist, terrorist, and revolutionary groups. These organizations engage in various attacks on the government and populace, often kidnapping or killing those who seek education, religious freedom, or anything else a particular extremist group has deemed a threat. In reality, most of these groups are nothing more than thugs with an ideology. They are dangerous, sometimes extremely so, but they have about as much in common with other citizens who nominally share their views as a T-Rex does with a sea gull.   The most dangerous of these extremist groups are led or backed by superhumans. Chief among these is King Claw, the leader of the Righteous Fire extremist group. Righteous Fire are more a cult of personality than anything else, following their leader’s twisted ideology which speaks of the decadence of Western culture, the importance of traditional values, and the need for strong leadership to prepare for a coming war that will consume the world in a great uprising they call “the Righteous Fire.” The group borrows its core ideals from various radical fundamentalist sects (both Muslim and Christian) but its members are more interested in promoting themselves to power than anything else.
