Preferred term

Shaka Zulu  

Definition

  • Founder of the Zulu kingdom Shaka ka Senzangakhona, known as Shaka Zulu, has often been portrayed as a despotic and highly innovative leader. This assessment has been based on research on the development of the southern African Zulu state under Shaka—research that has concentrated largely on military, political, economic, and demographic developments. [Source: Encyclopedia of Leadership; Shaka Zulu (1787–1828)]
