The colony and protectorate of Nigeria was established by the British in the late 19th century, specifically in 1861 with the founding of Lagos as a colony. The British expanded their control over the region through various treaties and military campaigns, culminating in the amalgamation of the Northern and Southern protectorates in 1914. This establishment was largely driven by economic interests and the desire for resource extraction. The colonial administration laid the groundwork for Nigeria's future political and social dynamics.
