| dc.description | As in the history of most African peoples, the nineteenth century was an era of intense, tumultuous and far-reaching changes in the history of the Yoruba4of south-western Nigeria. Some of these changes were brought about by external factors - the intensification of trade with Europe in the natural resources of Africa in response to the Industrial Revolution taking place in Europe, and the beginning and spread of Christian missionary evangelism and western education sponsored by various European missionary bodies. But among the Yoruba, other potent formative forces were at the same time at work. From the beginning to the end of the century, a groat movement was unfolding which, itself a product of a complex set of circumstances, occasioned a long series of wars and acted as the vehicle of momentous political, social and economic developments. | |
