Typical British move. Divide and conquer. They invented entire countries and flags so that the Arab World can never reunite.

Typical colonizer move, though Britain is certainly the biggest one, they all did this. The Rwandan genocide, for one of many examples, is a direct result of Germany and later Belgium reinforcing an artificial split between the long-since homogenized Hutu and Tutsi "ethnicities".

Before they did that, the difference between "hutu" and "tutsi" mostly came down to "do you own cattle?"
