      The abolition of the Slave Trade and Slavery in East Africa since Sir Bartle Frere's visit in 1872-73 was a crucial period in the fight against the exploitation of human beings. Sir Bartle Frere was a British colonial administrator who visited East Africa and became a vocal advocate for freeing slaves. The Arab slave trade was still prevalent in the region, particularly in Zanzibar, and Frere's visit helped to initiate anti-slavery measures. The British continued to purchase and free slaves, and treaties were established with local leaders to restrict the slave trade. Naval forces were used to intercept slavers, causing a decline in the number of ships involved in the slave trade. The establishment of Christian missions in the region also played a part in the spread of abolitionist ideas. By the early 20th century, the slave trade in East Africa was considerably reduced, largely due to the work of anti-slavery campaigners and the actions taken following Sir Bartle Frere's visit.

    Shaka, a legendary Zulu monarch, founded the Zulu Kingdom, a significant African empire in southern Africa, at the beginning of the 19th century. Shaka built a formidable army that subdued surrounding tribes and widened the Zulu Kingdom's domain through the use of his military prowess and astute strategic leadership. The Zulus were able to establish a centralized form of governance and a very effective military structure under Shaka's direction. He transformed the conventional tribal formations into regimental groups called impi, which might number up to 5,000 men. A formidable force on the battlefield, these regiments were taught to fight in a disciplined and coordinated manner. Not only did Shaka leave the Zulu Kingdom with a strong military, but he also ushered in a new social and cultural order. In order to efficiently organize society, he devised an age-graded social organization system that divided societies into various age groups. This system improved social cohesiveness.
