Shaka was illiterate, he therefore could not know anything about military tactics of ancient Romans.
There are similarities, because with his military genius Shaka independently came to a similar military tactics. With this Shaka could conquer adjacent tribes & territories.
However, whether Roman or Zulu: If you attack an army equipped with machineguns, cannons and horses, the tactic of a shielded turtel attack is futile & suicidal. The brits simply could shoot them into pieces.
I guess considering that, Shaku Zulu came a millenia or two too late. Can you imagine if he somehow united all the neighboring african countries to make another Afircan superpower?
@ulizinho It must be noted however that at Rorkes Drift more British soldiers died from stolen guns than spears, and it was the British bayonet that won the day and accounted for much zulu life.
That other poor tribe looked so scared, especially after Shaka killed their leader. When the guy on the hill yelled to them to attack, they just held up their sheilds and spears and started yelling, but they looked like they were so scared that they did not even attack, they just stood there and waited. They probably were hoping that since Shaka killed their leader the war would be declared over, But that was not the case, They had to fight Shaka's men anyway and suffer the same fate.
God that's sick, All those poor men reduced to a pile of dead bodies. That was so unfair because shaka's men were so well trained. Imagine being in the center of that tribe just waiting for all the other guys to fall dead in front of you knowing your turn is coming soon, that had to be scary for them. I like the over head view of the dead bodies after the battle, all you see are hands and bare feet sticking out all over the place, the hands still holding their spears. That sucked for them.
it all comes down to us brits thinking we can do wat we want as other countries may not be as advanced as us we think that technology is the best was foward when it is actually tactics
Shaka Zulu was a pretty clever guy. I mean before he arrived African tribal batte ltactics consisted of two lines slamming into each other and whoever had the better resolve won.
But Zulu was cunning and the British would find out that superior technology along with firepower that can account for numerical disadvantages would count for nothing.
@emiliskool british had guns and advanced technology. The Zulus had cunning, tactics and unshakeable courage. If it were purely even, I think the Zulus wouldve owned the british.
@TheDjmoore33 You forgot to mention the fact that the Brits had unshakable courage and were Fantastic Bayonette-men - right thru' the Boer War and Beyond. That's why it took 20,000 Zulus to defeat 1,700 of them - in a surprise attack. And they only managed it Once. It didn't happen again.
look Shaka(or the black napolean as i like to call him) was a great man both as king and a military leader he revolutionized weapon use and battle plans like the bull horn formation he was awsome and screw Dingane and Mlhangana and anyone who disses Shaka
""Not to burst your bubble, much respect for the Brits, but there's the War of 1812 also.""
You mean that war where the British stopped the Americans from invading and taking Canada?? Good British victory that was and that's the reason why Canada is Canada today and not part of the U.S.A.
If your American schools teach you that the Americans won the War of 1812 just because of the victory at New Orleans (which took place AFTER the treaty was signed and the war finished) then that's terrible.
guess what bitch love to burst your bubble you brits sued for peace cause you were getting your asses kicked so bad and then two weeks later you got the shit beat outa ya at New Orleans by a buncha hicks and pirates so why dont you shut the hell up
HAHA! If your talking about the revolutionary war, you sir, are very wrong. Most of the people fighting were the colonists themselves. Very few British soldiers were even fighting. At one battle there was only 1 British officer, all the rest were colonist. So my point is: READ YOUR HISTORY BEFORE YOU TELL ME ABOUT THE BRITS GETTING THERE BUTTS KICKED! :P
the reason y they were not fighting is obvious they were cowards those pussies couldnt do the dirty work for themselves and yes those colonist were fighting the british y dont u read ur history and stop believing what those british skools tell u
That was not true for the Anglo-Boer war. Thousands of soldiers were shipped to South Africa. Yet they couldn't win on the battlefield. The British high commander, Lord Roberts gave orders that resulted in genocide. That is how the British won that particular war. Yet genocide was denied in the UK for a long time.
Not to burst your bubble, much respect for the Brits, but there's the War of 1812 also. The British could fight, but parlament never committed to their cause. The British were defeated at the Battle of New Orleans. This was the same unit that beat Nepolean at Waterloo. And they were held back at Fort McHenry in Baltimore. Zulus also gave the Brits their worst defeat in all British history up till the Japanese in south east Asia during WWII.
This movie is for the most part very authentic. But a true shaka's first battle, southern African armies threw their spears back and forth. Shaka would have waited from them to throw all their spears so that they would be armed with only a sheild. His first battle would have been a true massacre piled high with enemy carnage just as depicted here.
Yeah, according to Zulu oral history, Shaka did. Shaka was annoyed by the long cumbersome African spear. He made a spear strictly for stabbing that was about half the size of a typical spear with a large blade to cause more damage and give better handle. He's also given credit to enlarging the shield to cover the entire body and ridding the army of sandles because they tended to slow him down and get in his way.
School is a place wear the people in power feed you what they want you to know and all the rest is filler and disguise. I'm more intelligent than some of my teachers. Pathetic.
An excellent dramatization of ritualized warfare's folly; Shaka broke the rules of warfare and defeated his opponents.
Americans who advocate war as a European-style rule based game of tag would do well to learn this lesson and re-embrace the American doctrine of total war, while discarding Just War Theory.
Sure, your idea has merit, if all you are interested in is fighting. The "game of tag," as you put it, is still far more brutal than the limited warfare of the eighteenth century, which was essentially a chess game played between princes. War may be an unavoidable aspect of humanity, but before the French Republic and Napoleon broke the rules and turned war from part of diplomacy into an apocalyptic struggle of will between nations, the worst war did was kill professionals in small armies.
With the return of total warfare, and the advent of modern technology, wars became an unbearable, unthinkable prospect. In the first half of the twentieth century, unspeakably tragic wars claimed not only millions of conscripted soldiers, but unarmed civilians in their own homes. The brutality which followed as a logical result of the much higher stakes of nationalized conflict meant that even the cultures which most valued individual life could, in good conscience, incinerate entire cities.
So you may well disparage "Just war" if you believe that fighting and winning is a an end unto itself. I believe that Justice is worth fighting for.
Shaka forged a martial society based on uncompromising, brutally effective warfare. He defeated many foes and ensured the survival of his name as a truly magnificent warrior.
He also left his lands a devastation. His rule brought about famine and suffering. If you watch the rest of this miniseries, you'd see that. God forbid we imitate him.
@Asasello333 The Thirty Year's War was a horrible, atrocity-filled religious struggle, not at all in the same category as say the war of Austrian Succession.
But yes, I do tend to oversimplify complex issues when limited to 500 characters.
Fun fact, on a recent history channel show they were talking about how much the zulu's could run as far as distance and speed, the British actually considereed the Zulus to be calvary instead of regluar infantry.
During one of the battles, some zulus ran over (and I mean RAN) over two miles to encircle a british line, then they SPRINTED the last 100 yards to engage the line in hand to hand comabt (all while under fire). THAT is some seriously conditioned dudes.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
""Fun fact, on a recent history channel show they were talking about how much the zulu's could run as far as distance and speed, the British actually considereed the Zulus to be calvary instead of regluar infantry.""
Well the Zulus certainly sped off and ran away like gazelles after they got a whupping at Khambula. In fact the British cavalry had a tough time catching up with all those Zulus who ran away there.
funny thing is, is when the british tried to flee on horse, the zulu eventually caught up with them when the horses would tire. the zulu could run 50 miles a day. their best asset was their speed and stealth but they never used it the way they should have.
You faggot piece of shit. Yeah the brits eventually won but they went through hell doing so. The Zulus killed a bunch of whites with pears and they had guns. The gun is a known as a cowards weapon.
""You faggot piece of shit. Yeah the brits eventually won but they went through hell doing so. The Zulus killed a bunch of whites with pears and they had guns.""
That's a lie. The Zulus had quite a few oranges as well as these 'pears' that you mention. I think the Brits had some apples too. A veritable fruit cocktail was served up at Rorke's Drift.
Hehe, did you know the Zulus had 50,000 firearms they had traded with the whites for by 1879?? At Isandlwana the Zulus had MORE GUNS THAN THE BRITISH. 1 in 4 Zulus had firearms drung the Anglo-Zulu War of 1879. At Isandlwana there were 5,000 Zulus armed with guns against 1,000 or less British armed with guns.
@tooblack09 Does that mean you think your faggot ANC buddies are cowards for using AK47's? Well they certainly were. When we started culling them with R5's they ran like the wind just like Bob's boys at Chimoio in the chimurenga! I miss those days
@nungu99 Fuck you! You piece of shit faggot which is a white European trait look at the Greeks and Romans both gay societies. You're just another coward that sit behind a computer. If you got that much heart come to Harlem and North Philly and talk your shit.
@tooblack09 What about the black trait of achieving fuck all. What have you guys invented and is your model form of government the one that happens in Africa? Stupid gudo. You're just lazy cunts who blame the whites for everything because the only job you aspire to is local drug dealer. You are the coward. Come to Africa and let's hunt.
@nungu99 We invented the traffic light, discovered how to do heart surgery, elevator, we taught many whites such as the English to bathe, you whites did not even know how to bathe yourselves research that its a fact, black moors built public bathes all over Europe and taught you people how to cultivate land to farm we brought you valencia oranges, rice, cotton, and sugar Your ancestors Greeks and Romans were a bunch of homosexual faggots a known fact fags just like you fucking coward.
Yeah bro I was reading about the same thing dude. Like the zulu's were more mobile and faster than the british who had horses and carriages. If they had used this overwhelming advantage better... Natal may never have become a colony.
@demboys18 Seriously conditioned - definitely. Shaka was a military genius. Until a zulu warrior had "washed his spear in the blood of his enemies" he wasn't allowed any pussy. Wet spear=wet dick. You bet your ass they were Seriously Conditioned.Genius.
I love how in school you never learn anything about african kings or much about asian kings all we learn is about vikings and european kings who probably weren't even that great,.
yah all we learn about is europe or european colonies, i wish we learned more about other people. we never learn anything about australia in school except for the fact that it exsists
Ya totally ya the African kings had soo much power o wait they get conquered by Europeans and sold into slavery. They had nothing on Rome or any other European power
@Acroix707 oh and the europeans wer so brave they went out with spears,guns,armour and everything else but the zulus went out with spears about 14 or 13 inches long and shields thats it the europeans were cowardly people lol once shaka screamed theyd braze themselves and crap their pants hehe
@sn00piedog well thats typical our education in the the so called Great united states even left out the struggles of the native people. Like the old saying goes
the victors write history to benefit only themselves.
It wasn't until i left high school learn more outside.
Lack of culture and pretty much everything else in American education just shows how backwards and ignorant person the the USA are.
most don't even know how thier own government functions.
@SgtColbert42 The problem is that White society only teaches white history. Every society always wants to depict themselves as being strong and powerfull. A country that is to be respected and admired. While in europe Spain, Britain, France, and Germany which were great countries they were tiny compared to the Great Mongul empire. Just look at this map. Very impressive even the europeans feared them, but you wont learn that in history brian.hoffert.faculty.noctrl.edu/HST263/MongolEmpire.png
@marinesnip Well even world history is mostly focused on white society and wars with neighboring countries. what do you study? about the Ancient Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, Mesopotamia, Persian empire, Vikings, If it weren't for the Whites fighting their neighbors you probably wouldn't even hear about the neighbors. It would have been great to learn about the chinese empires, Monguls, Japanese, african great nations. I didn't learn those things until i went to the university.
@sn00piedog yea it does kind of piss you off when you get to college and realize, "holy shit, nobody ever told me that!" OR, even just dropping by a library for a couple hours will show you how much schools don't teach.
@sn00piedog Do you think that, in Africa, children are taught all about vikings and Asian kings?. Also, do you think that, in China, they are taught all about vikings, African kings and asian kings? - it's wise to have as realistic a perspective as possible to understand how human society deals with Itself.
@gyrofoam1 In case you have forgotten this isn't europe half of you americans don't even know where in europe you're from anyways we dont learn much about the first nations except for the treaties and how they got jacked of their land.
@sn00piedog Why would you expect to learn the history of african kings when you're living in Canada. The history of Canada has got nothing to do with african kings - get real - get a Life.
@gyrofoam1 what does Canada have to do with the kings of Greece? and Rome? and all those other medditerean people fuck you im from Morroco why wouldn't I want to learn about the kings of Africa?, the teachers will tell you how africa was colonised but thats nothing to do with Canada
@sn00piedog Are you aware of what channel you're on?, do you know what this video is about? WTF are you babbling on about? - it's got NOTHING to do with Morroco. If you live in Canada, why the fuck would you expect schools to teach you about "the kings of africa"?...you're a deeply disturbed human being. And where do Greece and Rome come into it if you're Morrocan?. Why would they NOT teach their kids about the History of Western civilization?
@sn00piedog Ignorance of what?...You are not articulating the point that you're trying to make here...whatever it is, I can't consolidate it with reality. O,k - you have issues with your schooling. Where? You are Morrocan but live in Canada. So where did you go to school? Don't be a mystery man and then expect people to Know what you're saying - it helps to meet people half-way. So far, you've only said how weird it is to go to a library and "find out what they Never told you at school"
@sn00piedog Was it a Morrocan school where they taught you about the French? When you mentioned treaties I wondered if you meant the North American Indians in Canada. If you don't give any frame of reference you can't expect much feedback.
@gyrofoam1 For the last time you ignorant mistake,
I am a Morrocan living in Canada, the only things they teach as I said 100X before about africa is how the europeans colonized it or w.e or the slaves it produced same thing with native american history, we mostly learn about vikings who didn't even look at tuff as the image they installed in our minds.
@sn00piedog No, you Didn't mention it 100 times At All. Sorry the Vikings "don't look as tough" to you - Sorry they are more interested in teaching Canadian kids about the country they are living in and How it got to Be That Way - but you'll find That in most countries. It's about understanding your country's identity. Maybe if you had gone to school in Morocco ( I THOUGHT you spelled it wrong, so I checked - I was assuming you knew best. Not)..you would've learned african history instead. O.K?.
@gyrofoam1 just wondering.........................why in THE HELL would africa and chine teach about the Vikings! The vikings were a Germanic poeple leaving in scandanavia in the early medieval ages. I dont think any German poeple are close to africa and china, but OK.
@SuperTravis898 -to be a well rounded person you would want to learn about different groups of people around the world. Using your logic you could say "why would you want to study the ancient greeks?", afterall, I'm not Greek. Why would I want to study Genghis Khan and the Mongols? I'm not Asian nor Mongolian. Some crazy logic........or should I say illogic you're using.
RRhaegarr what the fuck kinda comments is this abeg WW2 how many white people fought 2geter the seprated themselves with the uniforms.....well for the zulu which am proude to nsay am a part of that heritage seprate ourselfs with the marking they are a symbole of your tribe. just a little 411.
listen shaka was a great man even though he was a brutal killing machine but remember times he was in.you live by the spear you die by the spear.See how great he was all people talk about him even the british.He was agreat military genius for his time.he had southern africa under his control.
I do not mean to be racist in any way, but when fighting people who look similar to you (same skin colour and such) isn't it possible to kill one of your own partners fighting along side you? I believe for example when/if Romans fought Gauls they could clearly see a difference in clothing and such.
if you r family was fighting your next door neighbor's family, and they were white and you all were wearing blue shirts , white pants and white sneakers , do u think you wud make a mistake and kill one of your family members? ofcourse not. you woud know who was your family. Try not to look at the fight, instead look in the fight
they were different clothing for example people in Zaire don't wear grass so if the zulus when to war with Zairens they would be wearing different clothing. The greeks fought each other and could still tell the diference, But I kind of agree with you i would be suprised if a few people on the same side accidently killed one of their comrades.
the greeks wore different Helmets to separate which side you were on remember hollywood fools people into thinking people back in the Greek days wore clothes into combat when they actually didn't most of the time
No one in history can be portrayed as good or evil.
Genghis Khan is seen as a brilliant warrior in history. Taking a majority of Asia and about 1/5 of Europe at the same time, Even giving the most powerful faction of all a run.
But in Some parts of Asia and Iran(or Israel?) he is seen as a monster. Even the Germans feared him.
The Nazis saw Hitler as a hero, but obviously we all saw him as a monster because he waged his war against us.
Im sorry to say this sometimes if u argue with a clueless person u waste your time & energy just leave that person.. Ignore the more u pay attention the more feels so proud and happy to continue with clueless ideas, sit behind your computer and feel secure. Peace
Whiteyonwelfare... Your comment is not called for. If you want to talk about Zulu armor and weaponry fine; But the whole "Monkey" comment takes it too far... It makes other Europeans look bad. Oh and by the way William Wallace was a Scottish man not Nordic. Nordic means Demark, Norway, Sweden, and Iceland. They are totally different tribes of Europe all together. Get your tribes right my friend.
Scots and Scandanavians weren't as different as all that. Vikings came and went, but many Danes settled down along the eastern coast. Dublin was run by the Norse until Brian Boru. When Harold Sigurdsson invaded England in 1066, he stopped first in Scotland to pick up more men.
I already knew Wallace is gonna win..but what shocked me is the percentage. I mean seriously..it should have been almost 50/50 but NOOOOOOOOO. Wallace just has better weapons..that's it

The British high commander, Lord Roberts gave orders that resulted in genocide. That is how the British won that particular war. Yet genocide was denied in the UK for a long time.

Not to burst your bubble, much respect for the Brits, but there's the War of 1812 also. The British could fight, but parlament never committed to their cause. The British were defeated at the Battle of New Orleans. This was the same unit that beat Nepolean at Waterloo. And they were held back at Fort McHenry in Baltimore. Zulus also gave the Brits their worst defeat in all British history up till the Japanese in south east Asia during WWII.

This movie is for the most part very authentic. But a true shaka's first battle, southern African armies threw their spears back and forth. Shaka would have waited from them to throw all their spears so that they would be armed with only a sheild. His first battle would have been a true massacre piled high with enemy carnage just as depicted here.
errbarkkill 2 years ago 3
Correct. Some evidence also suggests that Shaka invented a spear to stab his enemy instead of throwing spears. He took many by surprise in that way.
intelligencesoftware 2 years ago
Yeah, according to Zulu oral history, Shaka did. Shaka was annoyed by the long cumbersome African spear. He made a spear strictly for stabbing that was about half the size of a typical spear with a large blade to cause more damage and give better handle. He's also given credit to enlarging the shield to cover the entire body and ridding the army of sandles because they tended to slow him down and get in his way.

An excellent dramatization of ritualized warfare's folly; Shaka broke the rules of warfare and defeated his opponents.
Americans who advocate war as a European-style rule based game of tag would do well to learn this lesson and re-embrace the American doctrine of total war, while discarding Just War Theory.
jwoodswce 2 years ago
Sure, your idea has merit, if all you are interested in is fighting. The "game of tag," as you put it, is still far more brutal than the limited warfare of the eighteenth century, which was essentially a chess game played between princes. War may be an unavoidable aspect of humanity, but before the French Republic and Napoleon broke the rules and turned war from part of diplomacy into an apocalyptic struggle of will between nations, the worst war did was kill professionals in small armies.
SeverusFelix 2 years ago
With the return of total warfare, and the advent of modern technology, wars became an unbearable, unthinkable prospect. In the first half of the twentieth century, unspeakably tragic wars claimed not only millions of conscripted soldiers, but unarmed civilians in their own homes. The brutality which followed as a logical result of the much higher stakes of nationalized conflict meant that even the cultures which most valued individual life could, in good conscience, incinerate entire cities.
SeverusFelix 2 years ago
So you may well disparage "Just war" if you believe that fighting and winning is a an end unto itself. I believe that Justice is worth fighting for.
Shaka forged a martial society based on uncompromising, brutally effective warfare. He defeated many foes and ensured the survival of his name as a truly magnificent warrior.
He also left his lands a devastation. His rule brought about famine and suffering. If you watch the rest of this miniseries, you'd see that. God forbid we imitate him.

Fun fact, on a recent history channel show they were talking about how much the zulu's could run as far as distance and speed, the British actually considereed the Zulus to be calvary instead of regluar infantry.
During one of the battles, some zulus ran over (and I mean RAN) over two miles to encircle a british line, then they SPRINTED the last 100 yards to engage the line in hand to hand comabt (all while under fire). THAT is some seriously conditioned dudes.

Well the Zulus certainly sped off and ran away like gazelles after they got a whupping at Khambula. In fact the British cavalry had a tough time catching up with all those Zulus who ran away there.

No one in history can be portrayed as good or evil.
Genghis Khan is seen as a brilliant warrior in history. Taking a majority of Asia and about 1/5 of Europe at the same time, Even giving the most powerful faction of all a run.
But in Some parts of Asia and Iran(or Israel?) he is seen as a monster. Even the Germans feared him.
The Nazis saw Hitler as a hero, but obviously we all saw him as a monster because he waged his war against us.
