  • Shaka himself had had no children. He said that a son would kill him for the throne.
  • He forbade his men to marry or have sexual relations with women until he gave them permission to do so in middle age, and he quartered all his men in great barracks, as in any modern army.
  • Shaka became a conqueror because he was born into a system where changes in the ratio of population to land, and perhaps increased trade with Europeans through intermediary lands, were pro­ ducing a drive toward the emergence of an overlord of the region.

    The Zulu empire rose in the 19th century under the leadership of its founder shaka. This article highlights how he introduced new military tactics, including the use of short stabbing spears and large cowhide shields, and created a strict military discipline within his army. Even after Shaka's death, the Zulu empire continued to flourish under the rule of Cetshwayo kaMpande in 1879, but the Boers eventually defeated the Zulu army in the Ulundi battle resulting in a British invasion in 1879. Even though the empire was turned into a Natal colony but the Zulu culture continued to survive.

  • Shaka Zulu was one of Africa’s greatest generals. From a small South African tribe, he built a massive empire that crisscrossed the whole of South Africa and extended as far North as Zimbabwe, Zambia and large parts of East Africa.

      He did this by establishing a strong army and conquering surrounding chiefdoms himself ,adding their forces to his own and building up a new kingdom

      Shaka preferred to have young warriors in his army who are still fresh and willing to learn new fighting techniques which is one of the lessons the writer learned from king shaka Zulu and the writer is applying these skills in his business.

    This article talks about the lessons that the writer learned from King Shaka Zulu and how they relate and are relevant to the business world. It talks about how he was willing to contribute his fighting skills to the army and be part of the army even though he was the leader. The writer connects this to the business world as to how the owner of the company should work collaboratively with the team and be willing to hire and work with more young people just like king shaka who had young warriors who are still more energetic and willing to learn.

The Zululand is explained as having mountains, hills, having hot weather, being near the sea, and has swamps. It has many forests within the mountains. It also talks about how the Zulu land is very watered which means that it has many rivers with the Tugela River as the largest one.

  • It was only in the early 1870s with the opening up of the Overberg that Natal's economy was boosted by the increased trade. But while Natal's economy was stimulated, she remained an exporter of raw products and maintained her dependence for manufactured items on the industrialising west.
  • While the Zulu War involved much internal disruption, there were aspects of the Anglo-Zulu War which can be regarded as beneficial for Natal as a whole for they brought with them a temporary boom to some sectors of the economy
  • While Natal's trading relations with Britain and neighbouring areas meant a certain financial turnover, the arrival of the military and its war chest meant the inflow of hard currency as money changed hands for the numerous items that were required to keep columns of men on the move

  • The boom that accompanied the war, and the availability of new money resources to colonists and imperial soldiers, was extended into the sale of land.
  • Another major economic issue of the war, and one that has already been touched on, was that of the prices of items - this was an area that also became the cause of much correspondence between military and civilian authorities.
  • But it was on the increased number of soldiers that most price hikes were blamed, for they presented a new area of demand which greatly stimulated markets
  • Another point is that, despite the fact that during the first eight months of 1879 the cost ofliving rose by more than 50% 43 - a feature that attended the rise in prices and caused salaried colonists to suffer- there were few colonial complaints about the high prices
  • The feeding of troops and of the colonial population was a priority feature of the war months, particularly in the face of a decrease of stock for slaughter and of a decline in agricultural production. This factor is revealed in the importation of flour, meal and bran and of preserved meat and fish. While the importation of flour, meal and bran had always been a feature of the colonial economy. it rose to new importance during the war with imports virtually doubling from 33 602 barrels in 1877 to 69 078 barrels in 1878, then rising to 74 059 barrels in 1879 before falling to 50 094 the following year.
  • The situation regarding sugar, which was destined mainly for the Cape market,
  • Thus while the Anglo-Zulu War was a period of human and stock loss. and of dislocation and associated misery, it was also a period of major economic activity for the Colony
  • The Zulu War of 1879 had not only involved the loss of men, stock. the disruption of trade and agriculture, a rise in the cost of living, the use of telegraphs and the monopolisation of the railway and the new hospital at Addington, in Durban, it was also to provide a severe financial drain on Natal's coffers which were already depleted as a result of the railway loan and the public wo

    This article highlights the economic consequences of the Zulu-Anglo war. The first thing is that the war was costly as the British spent a significant amount of money on military operations, logistics, and supplies. The war led to the destruction of Homes, crops, and livestock for the Zulu people. The British colonial administration imposed taxes on the Zulu people, which further worsened their economic situation. As there was a destruction of homes and crops during the war this led to widespread of poverty among the Zulu people. All in all the War had a more negative impact on the Zulu people with The British gaining more from the war and also gaining control of the Zulu empire turning it into a Natal colony.
