Since that time, I've talked with Hindus on the things that go on in India and how the Muslims took Pakistan which belongs to India.

If Nigerians had the chance to determine their own destiny it might be as an Islamic nation. Almost 2/3 of Nigeria's 120 million people are muslims and they are a clear majority in most of the nation excepting the southern most states of the Republic. Nigeria is a product of European diplomacy that reached its zenith in 1881 when the German Chancellor convinced nations like Britain and France that the scramble for Africa was not worth plunging Europe into war. Questions like who had priority in certain areas and who controled navigatable rivers were settled at this meeting of Europeans only. So this is how we get places like Nigeria.
As for India, Islam entered India over 1300 years ago and before the British decided they wanted the subcontinent most of India was ruled by Shahs and Emirs and Princes who were Muslim.
