      Republika Bijafra je bila kratkotrajno odcjepljena država na jugu Nigerije. Postojala je od 30. 05. 1967. do 15. 01. 1970. godine. Ime je država dobila po zaljevu Biafra, koji se nalazi na Atlantskom oceanu. Biafru je priznalo svega nekoliko zemalja, ali je pomoć dobijala od dosta njih (Francuske, Rodezije, Južne Afrike, Izreaela, a posebno Porugala). Rat za samostalnost Biafre je završio kao ogromna humanitarna katastrofa jer je Nigerija uspjela blokirati dostavu cjelokupne pomoći (vojne i humanitarne). Od gladi su umrle stotine hiljada ljudi - možda i milioni - nikada se neće znati pravi broj.

      The Republic of Biafra was a short-lived secessionist state in southern Nigeria. It existed from May 30.1967 to January 15, 1970. The country was named after the  Bight of Biafra, the bay of the Atlantic to its south. Biafra was recognized by a small number of countries during its existence. Despite a lack of official recognition, some nations provided assistance to Biafra (France, Rodhesia, South Africa, Israel and specially Porugal).  The war of Biafran secession ended in a humanitarian catastrophe as Nigerian blockades stopped all supplies, military and civilian alike, from entering the region. Hundreds of thousands – perhaps millions – of people died in the resulting famine.
