In Hausa land, M.G Smith sighted three types of migration

• Movement of Hausa within Hausa speaking area
• Movement of Hausa into the non-Hausa speaking area.

the inability of Hausa to form a pan-Hausa state

Having looked at the emergence of the Hausa state and views of scholars in the state formation of Hausa land. Let us examine what led to the impossibility of Hausa to form a pan-Hausa state, from the beginning of the 15th century to the 19th century of politics in Hausa.
The first was the there-occurring of crisis in the land of Hausa also it was dominated by two general issues one was that Hausa state tried to overrun another during that period, there was know time for 50years when at least two states of Hausa were not at wat this means that the never consider coming together to form a political union and non of them was strong enough to make the others come under its political rule.
However, these two general themes made Hausa state from the 16th century to the 19th century impossible to form a pan-Hausa state. firstly was the theme of one Hausa attacking another for instance Kano against Golbin, katsina, and Debbi
against Kano
