The Hausa-Fulani is a blend of two ethnic groups, the Hausa and the Fulani, so it is not a group with a specific number of people. The Hausa are one of the largest ethnic groups in Africa, primarily located in Nigeria, while the Fulani are a pastoral nomadic group spread across several West African countries. The total population of the Hausa and Fulani individuals combined is estimated to be in the tens of millions.
The Hausa-Fulani people have historically made a living through a combination of agriculture, trading, and animal husbandry. Agriculture, including farming and herding livestock, has been a primary occupation. Trade, especially in goods such as leather, textiles, and grains, has also played a significant role in their economy. Additionally, crafts such as weaving, pottery, and metalworking have provided supplementary income for many Hausa-Fulani people.
Most Hausa-Fulani people in Nigeria engage in agriculture, trading, and livestock farming as primary means of support. Additionally, some are involved in skilled crafts such as weaving, leatherwork, and metalwork. Many also work in government and business sectors.
The main language spoken in Hausa is, unsurprisingly, Hausa. However, many Hausa people also speak English, as it is the official language of Nigeria where the majority of Hausa people reside. Additionally, some Hausa individuals may also speak Arabic, as Islamic culture and Arabic language have had an influence on the Hausa people.
According to a report by the Nigerian Communications Commission, about 37% of Hausa people have access to the internet in Nigeria.
The main reason the Hausa did not develop a large empire was due to their fragmented political structure. The region consisted of several city-states that were often in conflict with each other, which hindered the ability to unify and expand into a single empire. Additionally, external factors such as the Fulani jihad in the 19th century further prevented the establishment of a Hausa empire.
