> There are just far too many ethnic groups that live right next to each other but hate each other and these ethnic groups are all really too small to from a state on their own, if each ethnic group had a state there would be thousands of these nation in Africa, all being tiny micro-nations.

It isn't impossible to be a functioning microstate in 21st century. Technology and globalization already allows it.

Also these ethnic groups not that unique, so many states may contain more than one ethnic group, or will be relatively friendly and open to each other. Like Baltic states (two different ethnics - Balts and Finns), or Georgia ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgians#Geographic_subdivisions_and_subethnic_groups )

> But today they expect from these fake nations they created at the end of the colonial period to be "nationalistic" and band together and deny their ethnic and religious ties bridging over these artificial countries

It worked for Europe in past. France, Germany and Italy were composed from pretty different groups, but now they are viewed as single nations even from inside (mostly). And USA - descendants of Germans, Brits and Italians already aren't different there. Of course radical differences are problematic, but are they so radical?

Maybe it wouldn't work in 21st century, because there are globalization, mass migrations and other funny things though. World is too connected and too fast for nation-building process. Especially considering that many Africans not progressed much from stone age mentality, and mentality progress are always slow and require generations.
