Thanks for covering my home town Mbala... and it's rich History. I fault you only with one thing... I don't know whether this was deliberate.. You have not mentioned the local tribes who have occupied Mbala since time immemorial.. These tribes are the Mambwe and Lungu people. These two different tribes can be compared compared to twins... They speak the same language... either called Lungu or Mambwe.. They never had war and have always lived as one tribe.. They came to experience wars only when the Bemba people arrived... When the Ngoni people came, they lived happily with them but never went to war with them.. In Mbala, the first Ngoni Chief was buried here along Mbala Nakonde Road.. The Lungu and Mambwe tribes are also among the first farmers in Zambia... They were skilled iron workers. They were the first to receive the London and Catholic Missionaries.. The first permanent Church structures were built in Mbala Mbala... (Kawimbe) and Niamukolo... Mpulungu.. Sugar cane... Visali and bananas were commercially first farmed here at lsoko.. the palace of Senior Chief Tafuna..Sugar cane seedlings and bananas were brought by Portuguese elephant hunters...
@@ChannelTENthousandBC I would suggest that you cover them both and later as individual tribes.Involve local men too who have history of their people and places. .. Happy new year... Former teacher..

This is good. Next time, if it is possible, kindly include interviews with some key, knowledgeable people in a particular area; just for the diversity. Otherwise, it was great, thanks.
80% of the video is about naming European individuals and their endeavours in our ancestral lands. They built churches, prisons, fought other Europeans, brought in European refugees etc. So Mbala has no indigenous history worth detailing before Europeans arrived in the 1800s or after we gained independence in 1964? Then i would never call it the 'oldest district' as there are countless others with rich indigenous history before Europeans ever arrived. And this reflects the mindset of us Africans today. We have lost our own history and have no sense of identity. The entire video only two Africans are ever referenced by name compared to a dozen Europeans, let that sink...
@@user-vw6bk4pb4l yes you are 100% rights, it's a struggle that I find myself in but I can't be biased with the truth, it's a very deep deep conversation that I would love to have with you, if that no problem with you because even the precolonial history of tribal Zambia, 90% of it was written but the colonisers, even what we want to dive in, we find ourselves looking at our forefathers from the perspective of the Europeans
