The Anglo-Zulu War of 1879 was a fierce conflict between the British Empire and the Zulu Kingdom in Southern Africa.

The war began when British forces, underestimating the Zulu military strength, invaded the Zulu Kingdom. The Zulus, led by King Cetshwayo, fiercely resisted the British advance.

At the Battle of Isandlwana, the Zulus achieved a stunning victory, defeating a well-armed British force. But the British would strike back, with their famous defense at Rorke’s Drift becoming legendary.

The war ended with the British defeating the Zulu Kingdom and capturing King Cetshwayo, marking the end of Zulu independence and the expansion of British colonial rule in Southern Africa.

The Anglo-Zulu War is remembered for its dramatic battles and the clash of two vastly different cultures.
