In Nigeria perhaps? </p><p>In academic literature it's always the "Sokoto Caliphate".

I am willing to be convinced, but let's hash it out. My problems: 1. Replacing Sultan with "Amirul Muminin"--As this is English wikipedia, the standard is to stick with title in English reliable sources. In these sources, the title is typically just "Sultan". See: <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://books.google.com/books?id=QWTd1ftuCbwC&pg=PA321">here</a>. 2. It says that Sa’adu Abubakar was given this title in 1804. This is 150 years before Abubakar was born--making this problematic. 3. The number of google hits for "Daular Khalifar" is 1--this wikipedia page. That is not a good thing. I'm sure we can work out some of these problems and figure out how to improve the infobox together.
