Am a bemba from zambia. Our tribe originated from the Luba empire and I have also noticed words like mwamba and mulopwe which we alsa have as well with the same meanings so wow
Bembas originate in Kola Angola 🇦🇴, and when the Portuguese invaded the Kingdom of Kongo in Angola or modern Angola they run away into Luba modern territory and from there downwards towards modern Zambia…. The Luba people were also in modern Angola at one point before the Portuguese vandalised the area and many sought lands in modern DRC… We are all one ☝🏿
@@robertamsini1256 my friend read your oral history , do you know that to this day there are still Luba people in Angola? Knowledge is important my friend. When the Portuguese invaded the territory of Angola many of the Tribes run away and searched for new lands… The Portuguese were there for 500 years, and many tribes were afraid to be captured, so they relocated elsewhere…. Oral history my friend..
I am African American but I have an ancestral connection to the Congo, including Katanga. I have a DNA match who is Muluba. Thank you for giving us information about the people of the Congo. This is fascinating.
I'm in the US and met a Congo lady on a hike recently. I was embarassed at how little I knew about her country. Thank you for providing a basic education.
I’m a Mbili living in South Africa and always wondered why there are so few of us here but it all makes sense my roots are in Congo. Thank you for all this info.
Amazing content, am from Africa specifically Zambia🇿🇲. My family is from of the Luba/Lunda empire. We come from Kazembe which is located in luapula province of Zambia and we speak Bemba dialect. My traditional names are Chiti Kazembe.

Hello! Thank you for your encouraging words, I am glad you found value in this video. The Luba Kingdom is different from the Kingdom of Kongo and it was a patrilineal society, meaning that power was usually focussed on men.

Thank you for making this video! I've been researching Luba people and Congo history up and down for my novel and congo culture is an important part of it. It's sad how hard it is to find reliable information online, even with access to academic articles, I feel like there are so many blanks I'm running into that all these articles aren't filling in. Thank you for making this video!!
Mulopwe Kabongo and Kasongo wa Nyembo reside in Katanga. Bakongo speak kikongo, Batetela kitetela and the Luba speak kiluba. Kongolo Mwamba lived in Mwibele in the zone of Kabongo ( Katanga). If you have the opportunity you can visit the place and there is a very beautiful lake Boya. The history must be told as it is
Thanks for the shout out 😊 and yes that could be one of the reasons we left for the east. Secondly there's this phrase you wouldn't miss in the songs of Tshala Muana and I have heard it in that song that goes"hey hey twamashati, twamashati" I don't know if I got it right.What does it mean? Finally from your dance and confession that you have a drop of luba blood combined with what I have been seeing from Tshala Muana on the stage there's no doubt;luba ladies are best loketo dancers of all time .
You’re most welcome! My Tshiluba is very limited unfortunately despite me being Muluba but I’ll get back to you on that expression 😭😭 Also yes, I think slave trade was definitely one of the ways but maybe you can enlighten us more on that some day. 😊
Great video sis, am Luba as well😁 luba history ( alongside many African kingdom's history) is very complex and not properly researched. We as a people haven't got actual historian that study our history and give accounts of true events. I know it's hard to research coz most of our history is oral history and most of us do not fully understand our mother tongue anymore due to colonialism, this has led to a lot of information being lost and misinterpreted. At a time like this, we need more young people to become interested in our history. We need to listen to our elders account of history and from there we can put the pieces of our history back together. By doing so we will find out more about who we are and where we are going.
She is a Kasaian that tell a Kantangese History and try to make it about Kasaians. Lot of lies. Real Luba are in Katanga. There is no Luba History in Kasai.
@@ligala1 luba empire started in katanga go research in Google the wasn't empire in kasai kasai people come from katanga longtime go they lost their history and started claiming katangese history
That’s very true! It’s sad that even on the continent this is not taught as much as the colonial period is taught. And even the stories of the colonial period are misleading.
Empire was great but there was so much to cover. Hemba played a huge part in this empire. Afterall, it is our language thats mostly understood everywhere 😄
Hello I really enjoyed it all the way If you don't mind to talk more on our religion, I long to know more about our religion before we were forced into Christianity. Thank you ma'am 🙏 in advance 😊
Hi @CongoTalks243, im from Tanzania qnd my people are called manyema because many of us are descendants of Luba slaves capture by tipu tip by the help of Batele people. Would you happen to know which clan or historical occurrences the province of Maniema had to play in the luba empire? Great video btw and you can dance please dont listen to them haters🥲
@@razackchrist5096your Luba from what territory? And I met a woman from South Africa with the name mbili with Luba origin of Lualaba river which are the Buluba hemba
This is an informative video. I am studying Africa History right now . My study show me that Africa 54 nations are still practicing a form of tribalism . In all 54 African Nations to few people are making the decisions for the Nations . By detribalizing the Nation Africa could come up with the solution to their problems by treating all African people equal no matter what tribe they come from.That just my point of view. Would you do I video on the Kingdom of Kuba ? The Kingdom of Kuba was in the western Kongo northern Angola area. Thank you
Yes, tribalism is still very much alive. Getting rid of it is definitely one of our focus areas and we’re making some progress slowly. Yes, I will be talking about the Kingdom of Kuba too! Thanks for the feedback 🙌🏾😊
Hi, good evening ma How can I get in touch with you privately, I need your help to get through with my project, I need to get an interview with a congolese especially a native of luba
My father is baluba. I have never been to DRC, but I want to visit. Here in Norway baluba is a word for chaos. It annoys me when people use it that way, and noone here knows that it comes from the name of a people.
The Baluba people are originally from the Kasaï provinces. When Baluba had an empire with laws and leadership, those Congolese who think that it’s a chaos to be luba were leaving like animals. The fact of the matter is that the colonialists taught other tribes of Congo especially baswahili to hate Baluba because they were resisting to the them. Lumumba was from Kasai too. So Baluba are the most powerful people culturally and educationally and in terms of talent too. They are hard workers. Many Baluba engineers were working in Gecamine and other companies when Mobutu influenced kiungu to preach hatred against Luba or Luba-phobia to kick them out and take their jobs. Lubas are people of wisdom, spirituality and tallent One of the 2 first Congolese aviators was Luba Ildephonse ILUNGA The first Congolese Dr of law Tshisekedi was Luba In gospel and music Lubas are the best of all time In the sport they have the best too even world champion in some sport ILUNGA Makabu, DIKEMBE, Pierre NDAYE, so there’s absolutely no reason to use the word Baluba or Luba as a chaos. You should be proud to MuLuba
I need to watch it again because there were some bits I missed. Also. I am very interested in anything you can tell me about the area around Isiro. And why it is that Mobuto, when he was alive seemed to be chartering Concorde to go shopping in Europe is so popular now. Not that I' disagree with Kapernick about taking the knee but I've heard him praised by the Congolese yet if a Congolese Kapernick had done that in Mobuto's time, during La Zaireoise, the late President would have fed the man his own knee caps. I don't mean to bombard you with messages but I feel like I have found the Motherlode of information on the DRC and 11 years of questions are clamouring for answers.
Well this is a very interesting story, am Kenneth from Zambia a Lamba, my tribe is found in Katanga DRC and Copper belt Zambia. Here in Zambia the Luba kingdom or King has been misrepresented, in that certain names have been said that they were kings of the Luba people. For the Mukulumpe it is said that he was the king of the Lubas please clarify of this one, because history now name Mukulumpe appears as the king of the Lubas. And what is the difference between different types of the Lubas, Luba Kasai, Luba Sanga etc.
All these Luba are linked to the original Luba of Katanga Luba kasai left Katanga 500 years ago and settled in kasai while the Luba Katanga they didn’t left their land
I’m not gonna lie you get a good response. It’s all bot accounts saying that people from kasai are not lubas blah blah blah. But we are and we will always be. Peace and love🇨🇩❤️

Maweja th-cam.com/video/zQ1g_CBTpAs/w-d-xo.html
Tshiluba sounds similar to Bemba language of Zambia, I'm half Congolese and half Zambian🇨🇩🇿🇲...
Not bemba but Kaonde and Lamba
Actually, Bembas are of Luba origin
Lies not Tchiluba but kiluba which was originally language of kiluba
I've been thinking of getting a Luba based tattoo. Any recommendations?
I am bemba from northern zambia.lam interested to know our history from kubuluba.
In total how many kingdoms were established within the Congo?
At least 7. I talked about 4 and there’s also Azande, Msiri, Chokwe etc

Thank you for sharing this info sis! Do you mind recommending some books about this topic so I can do further research ?
There are a lot of mistakes.
Hi @CongoTalks243, im from Tanzania qnd my people are called manyema because many of us are descendants of Luba slaves capture by tipu tip by the help of Batele people. Would you happen to know which clan or historical occurrences the province of Maniema had to play in the luba empire? Great video btw and you can dance please dont listen to them haters🥲
Luba have never been enslaved in their History.

How come the name ndaya appears in one of my friends?
This is an informative video. I am studying Africa History right now . My study show me that Africa 54 nations are still practicing a form of tribalism . In all 54 African Nations to few people are making the decisions for the Nations . By detribalizing the Nation Africa could come up with the solution to their problems by treating all African people equal no matter what tribe they come from.That just my point of view. Would you do I video on the Kingdom of Kuba ? The Kingdom of Kuba was in the western Kongo northern Angola area. Thank you
Yes, tribalism is still very much alive. Getting rid of it is definitely one of our focus areas and we’re making some progress slowly. Yes, I will be talking about the Kingdom of Kuba too! Thanks for the feedback 🙌🏾😊
Hi, good evening ma
How can I get in touch with you privately, I need your help to get through with my project, I need to get an interview with a congolese especially a native of luba
Hi! Please get in touch on congotalksteam@gmail.com
I hope you get my email soon, thank you ma
My teacher assigned us this assignment. That’s how I found you
Would a visitor notice any significant difference between Kinshasa & Brazzaville especially on language, food & dance???
My father is baluba. I have never been to DRC, but I want to visit. Here in Norway baluba is a word for chaos. It annoys me when people use it that way, and noone here knows that it comes from the name of a people.
The Baluba people are originally from the Kasaï provinces. When Baluba had an empire with laws and leadership, those Congolese who think that it’s a chaos to be luba were leaving like animals. The fact of the matter is that the colonialists taught other tribes of Congo especially baswahili to hate Baluba because they were resisting to the them. Lumumba was from Kasai too. So Baluba are the most powerful people culturally and educationally and in terms of talent too. They are hard workers. Many Baluba engineers were working in Gecamine and other companies when Mobutu influenced kiungu to preach hatred against Luba or Luba-phobia to kick them out and take their jobs. Lubas are people of wisdom, spirituality and tallent
One of the 2 first Congolese aviators was Luba Ildephonse ILUNGA
The first Congolese Dr of law Tshisekedi was Luba
In gospel and music Lubas are the best of all time
In the sport they have the best too even world champion in some sport ILUNGA Makabu, DIKEMBE, Pierre NDAYE, so there’s absolutely no reason to use the word Baluba or Luba as a chaos. You should be proud to MuLuba
@@epitredechrist894 in your dreams😂😂😂
What tribe is your mother from?
@@jayklionga6054mushi and dad is Luba from Katanga and only lubas
Hi, Can I know the title of the intro song that you played?
Maweja :)
I need to watch it again because there were some bits I missed. Also. I am very interested in anything you can tell me about the area around Isiro. And why it is that Mobuto, when he was alive seemed to be chartering Concorde to go shopping in Europe is so popular now. Not that I' disagree with Kapernick about taking the knee but I've heard him praised by the Congolese yet if a Congolese Kapernick had done that in Mobuto's time, during La Zaireoise, the late President would have fed the man his own knee caps.
I don't mean to bombard you with messages but I feel like I have found the Motherlode of information on the DRC and 11 years of questions are clamouring for answers.
Mutwashi ❤
Eyo 🤩🤩🙌🏾

tel as about NGONGO LUTETE and his frand tipu tipu and white
Ngongo lutete was from the Sonye people, but was a traitor, capturing other Africans for the Europeans and Arabs.
Would you mind sending me title of that good song, it sounds mature.
Are you Congolese?
Artist kalonji. Song maweja
@@saidimuyamba9444 thank you so much
Well this is a very interesting story, am Kenneth from Zambia a Lamba, my tribe is found in Katanga DRC and Copper belt Zambia.
Here in Zambia the Luba kingdom or King has been misrepresented, in that certain names have been said that they were kings of the Luba people. For the Mukulumpe it is said that he was the king of the Lubas please clarify of this one, because history now name Mukulumpe appears as the king of the Lubas.
And what is the difference between different types of the Lubas, Luba Kasai, Luba Sanga etc.
All these Luba are linked to the original Luba of Katanga Luba kasai left Katanga 500 years ago and settled in kasai while the Luba Katanga they didn’t left their land
Kasaians aren't Luba.
There is no such thing as Luba Kasai.
@@robertamsini1256 No.
I’m not gonna lie you get a good response. It’s all bot accounts saying that people from kasai are not lubas blah blah blah. But we are and we will always be. Peace and love🇨🇩❤️
@@ukpreview2310 No Luba History.
Ashamed of your ancestors.
