Dingane was a general in the Zulu army, and a successor of Shaka...he did not attack the Zulu
Shaka was assassinated by his brothers Dingane and Mlhangana, who were born of his father, with the aid of one of Shakas iNdunas called Mbopa. The three of them also killed his brother Ngwate who was born of his Mother.
His brother Dingane
his given name was Shaka kaSenzangakhona
She orchestrated the line of succession. Even though Zulu tradition stipulated that a man who killed his brother could not succeed his brother, she lied to ensure that Dingane could succeed his brother Shaka. This was despite the fact that Dingane had a direct hand in Shaka's assassination. When Dingane was challenged by Mhlangana, Mkabayi had Mhlangana killed by henchmen so that Dingne could succeed. With Dingne on the throne, Mkabayi warned him that the boers were practising witchcraft against the Zulu. Dingane believed this and had Piet Retirf assassinated, along with his followers. This cowardly act led to Dingane's downfall; he was succeeded by his brother Mpande, it is doubtful that Mkabayi lived to see Mpande's reign.
Shaka Zulu's half-brother was named Dingane. He was a significant figure in Zulu history, known for his role in the Zulu kingdom after Shaka's death. Dingane eventually became king and is remembered for his conflicts with the British and the Voortrekkers.

King Dingane was a Zulu monarch who ruled in the early 19th century, succeeding his half-brother Shaka Zulu after his assassination in 1828. His reign, characterized by internal conflicts and external pressures, lasted until his defeat and subsequent death in 1840 during a power struggle with his half-brother Mpande. Dingane is often remembered for his military campaigns and the consolidation of Zulu power, as well as for his conflicts with European settlers, particularly the Voortrekkers. His legacy is a complex mix of Zulu nationalism and the tumultuous interactions between indigenous peoples and colonial forces.
