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.

    SWAZILAND GOVERNMENT Telephone: (+268) 24046244, Ministry of Natural Resources & Energy 24045376 P. O. Box 57, Fax: (+268)24044851/24047252 Mbabane, E-mail: [email protected] Swaziland 20th January, 2016. UPDATE FROM THE MINISTER ON THE DROUGHT AND CURRENT WATER SCARCITY BACKGROUND 1. Swaziland and the Southern African region is currently undergoing a very serious drought situation. Climate Change has worsened the situation and the country has been experiencing below average rainfall in the past three (3) years. We are advised this severe drought along with a scorching heat wave (El Nino) is one of the strongest on record, and is unfortunately unyielding. 2. Our current state of water storage across the country is seriously below the long term averages observed over the past five (5) years. This situation is as a result of the low river flows due to the lack of sufficient rainfall to recharge our river systems to fill up the dams. Currently our four (4) major dams; namely Hawane, Maguga, Mnjoli and Lubovane are recording very low levels of water storage. These dams are currently recording 6%, 35%, 6 % and 67% respectively. Government notes that all the five major river basins of the country have been greatly affected. In the Ngwavuma Basin there is currently no irrigation taking place as the river has since dried up. The Mbuluzi, Lusutfu, Lomati and Komati are also quickly following suit. While the situation calls for the implementation of robust measures; the Ministry is aware of the impact the complete 1 suspension of commercial irrigation in these river systems would have on the national economy and the country’s commitment to international markets.

  • 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.
