The city spans over in Anambra State.〔( Nnewi Facts and Figures )〕 Nnewi Metropolitan Area and its satellite towns is home to nearly 2.5 million residents . Dimensionally, Nnewi has an edge over all other units, being recognized by the 1953 census figures as the largest inland town of all others in the Eastern states of Nigeria.〔Vide the Nigerian census figures of 1996〕
==History==
In Nnewi oral history and mythology, the 'ewi' ((イボ語:bush rat)) played a great role in saving the founders of Nnewi during wars. Throughout its history, Nnewi has used its military might to maintain its borders and because of this, the killing or eating of ewi in Nnewi is forbidden to the present day. Nnewi existed as an independent kingdom from the 15th century to 1904, when British colonial administration occupied the kingdom.
Nnewi kingdom was founded on four quarters (large villages), namely Otolo, Uruagu, Umudim, and Nnewichi. Each village was divided into family units called 'umunna'. Each umunna had a first family known as the 'obi'.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work = Nnewi Union Atlanta )
These four quarters were these original names of the Sons of Edo: Otolo being the eldest and Nnewichi being the youngest of the sons Obi of Nnewi
