The Boers were the descendants of Dutch settlers in the Cape of South Africa who during the Great Trek "trekked" inland and founded several Boer Republics. The Zulus were a kingdom that rose to prominence in the early 19th Century under the direction of Shaka Zulu and soon became the greatest military power in Southeast Africa. In this video I'll be looking at the relationship between the Boer Voortrekkers moving eastwards into the interior of the African continent and the Zulu they met standing in their way.
