Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

There are several reasons, among these being the tremendous religious diversity that characterizes the region. With economic inequalities or political instability, religion may serve as a focal point. Likewise, following independence, many regions were divided by religion (and language); subsequent disputes over borders are thus cast in religious terms.
