The Zulu War of 1879 had profound impacts on the Zulu people, primarily resulting in significant loss of life and territory. The British victory diminished Zulu sovereignty, leading to the disbandment of the Zulu kingdom and the imposition of colonial rule. Socially and economically, the war disrupted traditional structures and exacerbated poverty, as many Zulus were displaced from their lands. Additionally, the trauma and consequences of the war affected Zulu identity and resistance to colonial powers for generations.
