Shaka, who reigned over much of sub-Saharan Africa until defeated by the combination of the most powerful European armies at the turn of the last century and tribal leaders who grew disenchanted with the Zulu king.

He was assassinated by his own lieutenants, yes. But the "most powerful European" armies were deployed elsewhere: in Euruope. History witnesses that Shaka never attempted to invade the dark penninsula, or even knew it existed.

Battle of Blood River where the Afrikaners showed the Zulu warriors they weren't mere peasants. I was a bit young when they had the miniseries called Shaka Zulu. Time for me to refresh my own memory.

...but before he was assassinated, I put all of his money into a secret bank account. Now, if you email me back with your checking account number, I can arrange to have $30 million US deposited into your account.
Of course, this transaction must remain confidential...
