Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 ABSTRACT The Swazi kingdom grew out of the pressures associated with competition for trade and for the rich resources of Shiselweni. While centred on this area it acquired some of its characteristic features - notably a regimental system, and the dominance of a Dlamini aristocracy. Around 1815 the Swazi came under pressure from the South, and were forced to colonise the land lying north of the Lusutfu. Here they remained for some years a nation under arms, as they plundered local peoples, and were themselves swept about by the currents of the Mfecane. In time a more settled administration emerged, as the aristocracy spread out from the royal centres at Ezulwini, and this process accelerated under Mswati as he subdued recalcitrant chiefdoms, and restructured the regiments. -

Africa's Wealthy Give Back
Africa’s Wealthy Give Back A perspective on philanthropic giving by wealthy Africans in sub-Saharan Africa, with a focus on Kenya, Nigeria and South Africa Foreword Dear reader, Africa is a multi-faceted and fascinating continent. With so many different ethnicities and nationalities, one common practice unites all Africans: a culture of giving. Philanthropy, or giving, has long been practiced in Africa. Whether the motivation is to contribute to the growth of the country, give back once business success has been achieved, or support one’s neighbors in need, philanthropy serves as the cement that binds communities together and contributes to the development of the continent. Africa is booming but accelerating growth is accompanied by numerous challenges: poverty is still a daily reality for many, political instability and scandals, and the degradation of the environment continue to dominate the headlines. Therefore it comes as no surprise that philanthropy remains an important contributor to long-term development, and Africa’s wealthy are keen to play a role. But what exactly characterizes African philanthropy? How do wealthy Africans give and what is their motivation? Is giving in Africa formalized? Does giving happen locally or does it extend beyond borders? These were the questions we aimed to answer with this pioneering report. At UBS, we have been offering dedicated philanthropic support to our clients globally for over a decade. Our clients also benefit from the grantmaking expertise of the UBS Optimus Foundation. The Foundation provides effective donation opportunities to projects around the world that aim to improve the lives of children. In order to be at the forefront of philanthropic thinking we are committed to providing our clients with the latest insights on trends and innovations. -
Thabani Thwala 0007581D Master of Arts (History
The Politics of Placing Princes in Historical and Contemporary Swaziland Thabani Thwala 0007581d Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts (History) of the University of Witwatersrand Supervisor: Professor Bonner Johannesburg 2013 1 Chapter 1: Introduction This research report is an exercise which seeks to understand centre-regional disputes, which are now nearly two centuries old, between the Swazi royal house, and the subordinate chiefdoms of the Magagula, Tfwala, Mabuza, all located in central Swaziland, and the Fakudze of Macetjeni in the Lubombo region. It seeks to investigate what has become an increasingly critical and controversial issue in Swazi society and Swazi politics: the relationship between princes and chiefs. It will also highlight the central importance of history, or at least historical assertion, in the assumption of political power in earlier and contemporary Swaziland. These issues have attracted some attention from scholars but not nearly as much as they deserve. Centre-regional relations between kings and subordinate chiefs are on the whole neglected in Swazi historiography. This thesis seeks to correct this anomaly by exploring local, regional, and national dynamics which strained the relationship between centre and region, and to show how the former has grappled with the problem of recalcitrant chiefs in a bid to retain its power position through suppression of the latter who have constantly sought to reclaim lost autonomy. The present history of Swaziland is one that glorifies the Dlamini dynasty and projects a one-sided picture of historical events in Swaziland. For instance, it is contended that Swaziland is a homogenous, democratic and peaceful country. -

Simbimba Ndlela 1982] 1
[Simbimba Ndlela 1982] 1 STILL TO ADD LEFT-OUT PAGES (A2) SIMBIMBA NDLELA - SYNOPSIS (PB) Editor's note We have reproduced in this volume two interviews conducted with Simbimba Ndlela. The first was conducted at the behest of the late Swazi King, Sobhuza II. The second interview, conducted over two days, some months apart was conducted by Carolyn Hamilton. Simbimba Ndlela's narrative poses tremendous difficulties for the first time reader, but in the opinion of the editors is especially rich in historical detail. In particular, Simbimba Ndlela's narrative is marked by a distinctive narrative style. We have retained his style of narrative at the expense of facilitating a reading of the text. To help the reader, we have provided an especially long synopsis. This interview contains information not previously known to the others present at the interview, who include in their number three of the most knowledgeable about Swazi history. It is also interesting among other things because of disputes between the interviewers and the interviewee over the burial sites of early Swazi kings and the status of Ndvungunye, the father of Somhlolo. The chronological beginning of Simbimba's account is the reign of King Mswati. Mswati ruled at Mtomazi at Bhaca in Mzimkhulu at the place of the Mpondo people. The location of these places are not made clear in the interview, but they have southern connotations and they might be located in the Matubatuba region. The home of Ludvonga's chief wife, and is close to the site of Ntjumbili ngwelele. After being warned that a Zulu (in this case probably an Ndwandwe king) was about to force Mswati to teach him the secrets of the incwala, Mswati fled, skirting the Lubombo mountains until he reached Mavaneni in the area of Ngogweni at Mangwaneni probably on the eastern [re: illegible] of the Phongolo River in the vicinity of Kosi Bay. -

1 Nhlabatsi Synopsis
[ (B82)Nyandza Nhlabatsi] 1 Nhlabatsi Synopsis (PB) The second testimony deals only with the history of the Nhlabatsi and explicates puzzling aspects of the 1970 testimony. It begins with a genealogy of the Nhlabatsi. The speaker Nyandza is born of Mzila, born of Zameya, born of Manimani, born of Mantini, born of Langa who he thinks is born of Nhlabatsi. Somhlolo is claimed to be the brother of Nhlabatsi. Manimani was installed at Mbelebeleni (or Dwaleni) by Somhlolo. He was responsible for cattle there. Manimani objected when Somhlolo married his sister LoZinyanga. He was killed for this offence. Manimani son's Zameya and Mnyamane quarrelled over the succession. Somhlolo arbitrated and installed Zameya. This decision seems to have been unpopular and Zameya was warned by Sibandze tindvuna of a plot against him. He fled to Somhlolo. Somhlolo sent two representatives, a Mavimbela man and a Mathungwa man, to take Zameya to Bhukwane. The king separated Zameya and Mnyamane. Mnyamane remained in the New Haven area. Zameya was given a new chiefdom. rejected [Date of print-out: 28 4 2016 12:02] 2 RE: THIS INTERVIEW WAS DONE WHEN WE WERE STILL STANDARDISING VARIANT PRONUNCIATION IN THE TEXT TO WHAT WE CONSIDERED TO BE THE CORRECT SISWATI ORTHOGRAPHY - NEED TO CHANGE BACK TO JOTTER-FORMAT Endnote format as done by CH in first edit Title:'... it appears that the king selected a young girl.'
