Description

BLACK HISTORY Africa has long been a stunningly scenic, intellectually gifted, and culturally varied continent. Many stories describe the history of the African people, including their development, difficulties, setbacks, and tenacious advancement.

Mfecane, also known as "The Crushing," or Sotho Difaqane, was a series of Zulu and other Nguni battles and forced migrations that took place in southern and central Africa as well as certain areas of eastern Africa during the second and third decades of the 19th century. The advent of the Zulu military monarchy under Shaka (c. 1787-1828), who transformed Nguni fighting, was the catalyst for the Mfecane. The creation of Shaka's kingdom, which occurred amid social upheaval and drought, was a component of a larger process of state formation in southeast Africa and most likely came about as a consequence of increased rivalry for trade at Delagoa Bay. In regions weakened by overcrowding and overgrazing, the Mfecane pattern, which pitted tribe against tribe over an ever-increasing radius, was very effective.
