As I already wrote, in what we call Afrique noire, ie Sub-Saharan Western Africa, people belong to an ethnic group, much more than a religious community. The ethnic group is about language, customs, rituals, the land where ancestors rest in peace. Religion is essentially an imported concept. And it is not about race, it is about the land of your ancestors. Everyone who spent some time in Afrique noire will reckon that Nature talks to you out there. I am afraid that ethnic divisions with cross-border complications together with reckless fight for political supremacy will shape the destiny of Ivory Coast over the foreseeable future. When through hell, just keep going. W. Churchill
However, I can safely say that people would be better off if ethnic groups were not split up by political borders. I am not trying to brush off your question, just need to do some research before I provide a more accurate answer. When through hell, just keep going. W. Churchill
