The Kingdom of Rwanda, which existed from the 15th century until the early 20th century, was ruled by a series of kings known as the "Mwami." The most notable kings include King Ruganzu Ndori, who is credited with unifying the kingdom, and King Mutara III Rudahigwa, who ruled during the colonial period and promoted modernization. The last reigning king was King Kigeli V Ndahindurwa, who was deposed in 1961 following the abolition of the monarchy. The legacy of these kings is still influential in Rwandan culture and identity today.
