Description
The Zulus are descendants of the Nguni people who migrated south from the Great Lakes region in about AD 800. A man named Zulu (�Heaven� in Zulu), established his own sphere of influence and settled with his family in KwaZulu, �the place of heaven. "
The descendants of Zulu, the Amazulu (�sky people�) are divided into different clans, each ruled by a chief. All these clans belong, in turn, the Zulu Kingdom, under the sovereignty of a king. King Goodwill Zwelithini is the current king of the Zulu nation.
