How did imperialism affect the indigenous population of south africa?

The distribution or distribution of Africa, also called the dispute for Africa or the race for Africa, was the invasion, territorial division, colonization and the annexation of African territories during the period of the New Imperialism, between the 1880s and the beginning of the First World War, which involved France, Germany, United Kingdom, Italy, Portugal, Belgium and Spain, justified in different claims of these countries.

The Zulus are an ethnic group settled in southern Africa, especially in the Natal region. The settlement of groups of European settlers, first of Dutch origin (the Boers) and later British, led to tensions that led to a war, begun in 1879. The invaders were defeated on several occasions by the leader Cetshwayo who was in command of troops very well trained and organized. Finally the British technical and material superiority managed to overcome the resistance of the aborigines and led to the creation of the protectorate of Zululand.

As a direct consequence we can say that the natives lost their way of government, were forced to acquire a new language, were evangelized and lost control of their natural resources, they became raw material producers for European metropolises.
