The Zulu Republic was born after many Nigerian groups migrated into the vast lands which were controlled by the strong Zulu tribe in central Africa on the Upper parts of the Zaire river and its tributaries. These groups brought many new weapons and tactics into the ancient chiefdom of the Zulu and quickly conquered it. However, rather than run their country together, the several Nigerian immigrant tribes began to fight amongs themselves. It was at this same time that the Zulu began to steal the weapons which the Nigerians brought. The conclusion of the battle which insued among all these different groups established the Zulu Republic in what became the capital city.
