The Anglo-Zulu War was fought between the British Empire and the Zulu nation. It began when Zulu king Cetshwayo, determined to resist European advances into his territory, rejected British demands to disband his troops. The British attacked, and Cetshwayo routed them at Isandlwana with a disciplined army of 40,000, but his forces were utterly defeated at Ulundi, with 1,500 Zulus, compared to 13 Britons, killed in the final battle. The British then burned the town and did what to Cetshwayo? Discuss (http://forum.thefreedictionary.com/postst23805_Anglo-Zulu-War-Begins--1879-.aspx)
