The culture of Nigeria is shaped by Nigeria's multiple ethnic group. The country has 527 languages, seven of them are extinct.Nigeria also has over 1150 dialects and ethnic groups. The six largest ethnic group are the Hausa and Fulani in the North
the Igbo in the southeast
and the Yoruba predominate in the southwest
the Tiv people of North Central Nigeria and the Efik - Ibibio. The Edo people are most frequent in the region
between Yorubaland and Igboland.
Nigeria's other ethnic groups, sometimes called 'minorities', are found throughout the country but especially in the north and the middle belt. The traditionally nomadic Fulani can be found all over West and Central Africa. The Fulani and the Hausa are predominantly Muslim while the Igbo are predominantly Christian and so are the Efik, Ibibio, and Annang people. The Yoruba are equally likely to be either Christian or Muslim. Indigenous religious practices remain important to all of Nigeria's ethnic groups, and frequently these beliefs are blended with Christian beliefs, a practice known as syncretism.
