Page 3 of this PDF talks about 'Madagascar still recognizing slavery'. So, Madagascar was connected to the Indian Ocean slave trade, particularly it was connected with the Cape Colony, because slaves were transported to the Cape from a wide range of areas in the Indian Ocean world, including Madagascar. Some of the slaves transported were owned by the VOC, a Dutch owned company, and labored on Company farms, outposts, and docks. The majority were sold to settlers and worked as domestic servants in Cape Town or as laborers on the grain, wine, and pastoral farms of the Cape interior. Moreover, slaves laborer more on wine farms, there were also wheat farms which required the labor of slaves. The economy of the Cape colony was mostly built on slaves just as the saying goes : " Wealth in people". So, the economy of the Cape boomed mostly because of slaves. Furthermore, slavery continued in the Cape for years until the abolishment of slavery was implemented which placed a challenge for the economy of the Cape, because the shortage of slaves meant that less work was done on the farms. However, even though slavery was abolished we still have traces of it left today.

The Zulu was originally a small clan living in the territory of one of the Nguni rulers in Natal, Dingiswayo. Shaka who was born in 1787, was one of the sons of the Zulu clan chief, Senzangakona. His mother’s bad temper led to her being driven away from her husband’s household and Shaka grew up among strangers. He had an unhappy childhood; he was bullied and mocked by his companions. Memories of humiliation gave him a ferocious thirst for power. As a youth he joined Dingiswayo’s forces and earned a reputation for reckless courage. This found him favour with the chief. In 1816, after the death of his father, with the aid of Dingiswayo, he removed a brother from the chieftaincy of Zulu and became the chief of Zululand. Shaka proved to be a military leader of outstanding genius
