My reaction to learning this topic about shaka zulu was strange because I learned more about a guy I never knew before. shaka zulu was strong, persistent and doesn't care about anybody else but himself, but that is what lead to his demise, he died in the war on september 22, 1828 because he pushed his men to fight when they were tired. He died when he was only 41 but that is considered very old for them.

My reason why I wanted to do this topic is because as soon as I first heard about his name I wanted to learn about him. I learned that Shaka Zulus real name is Shaka kaSenzangakhona. I also learned that Shaka Zulu was not the best leader, But he was a strong leader he would fight for his right and he never gave up. I also learned that he was assassinated by his own two brothers.
