King Cetshwayo kaMpande, leader of the Zulu Kingdom in the late 19th century, led a formidable resistance against the British during the Anglo-Zulu War of 1879. His disciplined Zulu warriors, armed with traditional weapons, won significant battles, including the Battle of Isandlwana. However, the British eventually prevailed, leading to the annexation of Zululand. Despite the defeat, Cetshwayo's courage and military prowess left a lasting legacy, and his descendants continue to play significant roles in modern South African politics.
