Well, as I mentioned in my sheet. The ruling Duke took that idea and made it almost national policy.

Namely the Nigerians being the farmers and Cameruns being the industrial.

Although, he set certain ports in Nigeria - while set up banks in Camerun...as well as having the military be mostly in the Kamerun region.

So yeah. Kamerunians might have power - although it is more subtle. Since Duke Hurst made it - so one side wouldn't suddenly go mad on the other - since he needs both to prepare for the Afrikan Kaiser...or that was his plan.

Those are the European border divisions you are talking about, I mean you want to pick favored peoples out of the native cultural divisions.

Your native collaborators are probably going to be the [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duala_people#German_administration]Duala people[/url] in Kamerun and the Yoruba in Nigeria. If you drop the Islamic north that'd make sense, but if you decide to include them you'd need to work out some special relationship with the Emirs up there. 

Either way, you can't afford to reign heavy handed like a Colonial government, and you won't have the white muscle to force Apartheid policies like Rhodesia. You're gonna need to have African confederates, but in order to do that and maintain German cultural dominance, you'll need to make sure that those confederates are only some of the native peoples, since bringing all native peoples into equal status government would be the end of white control. Gotta play Germans on top, allied tribes just a little below that, and the rest down on the bottom.

Natural that means your hinterlands should be politically messy and hotbeds of dissent and ill rule, while your coasts are the gleaming [i]Neues Deutschland[/i] that you want it to be, with African beer halls and cool shit like that. 

I don't mean to sound pedantic btw. All these details seem irrelevant on the surface, but believe me, paying attention to them will make your nation feel real. Plus it gives you shit to write about.
