    You have to admire the Zulus’ bravery but the insanity of charging a well set-up and well-armed defensive position of firearms is hard to fathom. No guile, no playing to their own strengths, nothing unexpected. Madness.

    They grew up being cared for by mother and father, the partied, they had friends, and fell in love. They had dreams and aspirations.

      Dead men tell no tales.
      I'm sure he didn't go into the splitting of his column in the face of an unknown number of enemy force and that he left the Islandwana camp with Brevet Lt. Colonel Henry Pullein who wasn't an infantry officer. He was experienced as a supply and "organizer."

    Chelmsford was one of those commanders that cared only about his reputation and looking successful regardless of the cost to anyone else. I saw a few of those when I was in the military and thanked God I never went into action under any of them. His tactics were good but his strategy stunk. If the Zulus had moved to his rear, cut him off from supply and reinforcements and resorted to a guerilla campaign he and his command might have been toast.

      While a force is organized and fighting it is much more effective at protecting itself, especially when compared to a force that has been routed and/or is retreating. In this example each British soldier would on average have killed about 15 Zulu soldiers. If they spent 5 hours to do so, that equates to an average of one every 20 minutes, which is feasible. Apparently being mounted with better weapons, chasing a scared person on foot in open terrain, is quite an advantage. As difficult as charging Gatling guns, cannons and packed rifle fire must have been, the Zulus would probably have been much better off had they pressed their attack. I imagine morale played a big part. The Zulu warriors knowing they were going into a fight with an enemy that can beat then from a distance with little risk to themselves. must have demoralized them before the battle even began.

      The British were under the command of a Royal family that itself were nothing more than the puppets of the real power behind the British Empire - The Crown Corporation of the City of London.
      Now the Americans took over the reign after WW1 and you can swap the Crown Corporation of the City of London (Bank of England) with the American Federal Reserve.
      All American armed forces personnel do, as did the British before them, is to invade foreign lands, plunder the resources, install a puppet government & private bank and enforce debt slavery upon the people within.

    Zulu should have begun a guerilla war e.g cutting off supply lines,poisoning water and defending safe water supplies for themselves,snipers and small night attacks -but such is the power of military tradition...Chelmsford finally got his just desserts

    This video is an interesting kind of communist propaganda. Magical historical narrated fiction. Told from the omniscient point of view.
    The video is magical insofar as it’s made possible by technology. It’s historical insofar as it refers (accurately or not) to an (alleged) event in the past. It’s fiction insofar as the physical events are depicted interpretively. And it’s “true” because it’s (told) (witnessed) (attested) by a narrator who’s omniscience can’t be questioned.
    And most of all: It’s selective insofar as it omits the intellectual chain of reasoning on both sides which preceded the war.
    It’s timeless.
    And ageless.
    And Majestic.

    The Zulu Won the first battle because they had a smart,competent leader unfortunately the brothers of the Zulu leader in an attempt to take power assasinated him and they where not as smart as the king they ordered mass charges like shown here assuming they could simple overwhelm the British not caring about overestimating there aponet costing Africa another Great Empire,so much promise taken away by divisions,greed and betrayal.

Doubtless the ancient Britons had a similar experience when the Roman empire halped itself to what is now England!
