The 1900 Buganda Agreement significantly strengthened the position of the chiefs in Buganda by formalizing their authority under colonial rule. It granted them control over land and local governance, allowing them to maintain some traditional power while acting as intermediaries for the British. This arrangement helped solidify their status and influence within the community, as they were able to leverage colonial support to reinforce their leadership. Ultimately, the agreement provided the chiefs with a framework to navigate the changing political landscape while preserving their roles.
The British/ European settlers traded with the African chiefs. The settlers would offer gold and expensive jewels and such and the African chiefs would offer their people as slaves
