The Battle of Veglaer | Zulus Vs Boers | Total War Cinematic Battle
The Battle of Veglaer, fought in August 1838, stands as a significant conflict during the Great Trek, a pivotal movement in South African history where thousands of Boer settlers, known as Voortrekkers, migrated from the British-controlled Cape Colony into the interior of South Africa. This migration was driven by a combination of economic pressures, resistance to British colonial policies, and a desire for greater autonomy. The battle represents a crucial moment in the conflict between the Voortrekkers and the Zulu Kingdom under King Dingane.

    the zulu "empire" became a reality nearly a century after the dutch landed in the cape. they expanded by wiping out other tribes and assimilating the women and children.....which caused the matabile tribe to flee, ended up in what was to become zimbabwe - they had a bit of an uprising under rm who sent a regiment to deal with it....needless to say a high number of them were shot and swept under the rug. the zulus also fought the british when they invaded this country via the boer republic of natalia....a second invasion after they heard diamonds were found here. informative video, understanding that graphic's has it's limitations which creates the wrong impression. suggest you add some historical context....and it is not "boers" - pioneers or settlers will be appropriate. "boer" means farmer.

    They "Boers" did not wear uniforms neither had the Martini Henry or a similar rifle. The men would fire and the son/wife or other would reload - as example two or three rifles per man rotating between the marksman and reload. Bear in mind they were excellent marksmen and if the enemy charged in a "bundle" mostly every shot would hit. The British made the same mistake when they invaded the Republics - thinking that marching up in blocks would be intimidating....it did not work well.
