KwaZulu, RSA

This part of South Africa, Zululand, was never colonised. The invading British Army was partly wiped out at the Battle of Isandlwana in 1879 and although the Zulu wars were inevitably won no attempt was made to move settlers into the area. The land is not particularly attractive, and there were plenty of more hospitable farming areas. It remains desolate and sparsely populated
