The Lozi lied to you. The so-called Lozi kingdom never stretched farther than Senanga in Western province. The rubbish they told you about it stretching into Zimbabwe and Congo is because when the English wanted to loot the Copperbelt of Zambia, they got the Lozi chief to sign the contract authorising them to do so. Now that they are not happy with Zambia, they are talking about seceding from the country. However, the part of the country that belongs to them is tiny, devoid of resources and would not be able to sustain then. As a result, they are laying claim to a wide area of people who do not even know that they exist, who outnumber them, and are not interested in their secessionist fantasies.

Great content as usual! I got some info for you . The Babirwa people originated from Transvaal in South Africa. They settled in the Tuli Block area in Botswana, which is separated from South Africa by the Limpopo River. The Babirwa people populate the Bobirwa Subdistrict in Botswana. The Babirwa language is called sebirwa, which is a Sotho dialect. Sebirwa is a heavy dialect of Sotho, especially Sepedi mixed with a little Tshivenda. The Babirwa people moved from Nareng under their chief, Tshukudu, to the Blauwberg area. Some Babirwa moved to Bobonong around 1916 after being told that the land now belonged to BSAC.

The leader of the opposition coalition in Botswana UDC uMhlekazi Duma Gideon Boko is one the prominent Xhosa people in Botswana look him up. Then there's Amandebele tribe found in Francistown, Mahalapye & Rakhuna. Also there's Basotho tribe found in Rakhuna & Tlhare Seleele. All this tribes that I have mentioned above migrated from South Africa some during the Mfecane wars and others during the Boer trek and settled in what is now called Botswana batswana included also. There's also Bakalanga tribe found in Francistown they speak iKalanga it's not setswana but closely related to the Shona language. Also Bayei tribe, Herero tribe and more that I have not mentioned.

The concept of a Protectorate denotes a region under the control of a foreign country, frequently evolving into a colony. The East African Protectorate, encompassing territories such as Kenya, Zanzibar, Tanganyika, and Uganda, emerged as a pivotal historical development. This administrative framework was instituted in the aftermath of the insolvency of the Imperial British East African Company (IBEAC), the preceding governing entity. The IBEAC's bankruptcy prompted the transition to the Protectorate, leading to the consolidation and eventual merging of certain regions within the broader East African landscape.

One notable example is the Manyana Rock Shelter in Botswana, which is not in South Africa but shares cultural similarities with Tswana architecture. This site features circular stone structures believed to have been inhabited by the ancestors of the Tswana people over a thousand years ago. However, in South Africa, there are likely similar ancient circular dwellings scattered throughout regions historically inhabited by Tswana communities, but specific examples would require archaeological investigation or local knowledge.

The few differences between you guys and us Babirwa is that we tend to say "ta" when you say "Tla" eg Takeeno instead of tlaakeeno (come here). Sebirwa has been heavily influenced by Sengwato. That is why today when you get to Bobonong , the Babirwa capital this side of Botswana , it is like Bapedi trying to speak Sengwato. But also because we have Bavenda closer to us we tend to borrow some words or style from them our neighbors , which is cool. Sometimes for instance instead of saying Tauyatswala , Mmirwa may say Dauyatswala.
