See, Nigeria is a multi-ethnic country. It has somewhere around 30 or so ethnic groups, and just as many languages
This is really just a problem of "my group is diverse and full of detailed differences, their group is just a conglomerate." They see Africa and think "all black, so all one group" with no further differentiation. Whereas here they have deep opinions on Light Skinned vs Dark Skinned Niggas, West vs East Coast, shit fucking what street you were born in.
Which isn't even something they do more or less than any of us. People say the South, when they could mean anyone from fucking Virginia to Florida to Texas. Wherein my corner of Deep South Louisiana will have hard opinions on people from maybe 50 miles North not being associated with them (and will commit a hate crime if you say the word Shreveport).
The name for this is Fundamental Attribution Error as applied to a group, for anyone whose wondering.
