History of Buganda
The Kingdom’s Establishment
The Kingdom of Buganda is said to have been established
around the 13th century. The establishment of the
Kingdom seems to coincide with the disintegration of
the Chwezi dynasty. By the middle of the 17th Century,
Buganda had evolved into an ecient bureaucratic

the west and north west of Lake Victoria locally known as
Nnalubaale. To read more, click the download button below
