Interesting to learn about this great nation Zulu nation , I just found out that I'm zulu 2 weeks ago I'm so shocked and overwhelmed to learn about my true roots
The Zulu nation was not "conquered" at Ulundi. The Zulu king was advised by his chief induna to "surrender" to the British. There were still active Zulu regiments in the field at the time, ready, willing and more that able to fight the British.
The Xhosa nation is 400 years old, started by King Nkosiyamntu(son of Mnguni) in between 1610 and 1675 He was preceded by king Malangana kaXhosa/kaNkosiyamntu Who should not be confused with king Nkosiyane
No everyone knows the Zulu existed before that, but the Zulu was just another tribe until Shaka took the reigns as leader, The Zulu nation that is celebrated is the one that Shaka grew.
Malandela named the small tribe for which he was chief of after his son Zulu, Shaka took that small tribe his father inherited fromhis predecessors and turned it to a nation, before Shaka there were dozens of different tribes, amahlubi, amathonga, isizwe sakwa ndwandwe, isizwe sakwa Mthethwa, isizwe sase mangweni etc Shaka conquered and annexed them all so basically Shaka created the Zulu nation by conquest
@@mahlalekhwenimonsterchanne4127 if u knew your history correctly. Ud know that the surname and the incorporation of other tribes into one began occured concurrently. Thing is, Shaka did it at a larger scale.
@@mahlalekhwenimonsterchanne4127 yes Zulu as a nation did not exist until Shaka, before, it was merely a chieftancy with a few thousand people, one of many chieftancies at the time
May be you wanted to say that they were given some pass book 200 years ago and Zulus never came from anywhere but they are naturally from Kwazulu Natal
Interesting! Jan van Riebeeck settled in the cape on 6 April 1652. (that is 348 years ago.) The British seized the cape as a colony in 1795 and that is 205 years ago.
The Zulu nation is an amalgamation of tribes that had been in the area for about 2000 years, the 200 year period only marks the inception of this particular group as an official nation. For example, there was no "England" until a few hundred years ago, but it doesn't mean there weren't people in the area who would eventually become "English" in due time. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bantu_expansion
Zulu nation wasnt found 200 years go but King Shaka attacked many nations after defeating them they belonged to his kingdom that wat they talking about
I think it's time people know the truth about the origins of Zulu people. They are not from central Africa. They were just crossing over in central Africa most probably between Nigeria and Cameroon. Zulus are coming from Northeast Africa. These are Hebrew Israelites. The white man does not talk about it.

Zulu Kingdom yes is 200 yrs but they is that bigger nation which is Nguni. Mnguni came from Uganda leading these ppl.u will find Abantu in Uganda even today. Their leader was Untu who is originally from Sudan. So the bigger nation was Ngunis until Shaka build Zulu so. and ppl in Kzn are not all Zulus the bigger clan is Qwabes even today.

200 years since Shaka Zulu created the Zulu Kingdom before that there were Nguni ppl from different clans like Mthethwa, Ndwandwe and Zulu.

I was thee smallest clan that was constantly defeated by Ndwandwe, until Shaka with help of abakwaMthethwa and Qwabe.
AmaZulu have been around, even during the Era of Pharoahs in Egypt.
Abantu, were found along the Nile, and Ngunis were a section of Abantu, and the forebears of the Zulus were Ngunis.

This nation was founded by a person named Zulu. Its roughly 400+years old.
