Hypothesis

Ethnolinguistic groups that are split across national borders will still be ideologically closer to the nation to which they belong.

Note

In most cases, only national identity was significant, but with issues that predate the modern-day African nations (such as gender and religion), supranational groups accounted for as much variation as national identity.
