The Fasimbas were a regiment of Tshaka's army. Tshaka (also sometimes spelled Shaka) Zulu was one of the greatest African warriors. His army consisted of different regiments or impis. Each had its own shield, war cries and uniform. After the death of King Dingiswayo in 1818, Shaka became Chief of Chiefs and proved to be one of the greatest kings in all of African history. He named his capital Bulawayo. Shaka is renowned for his military genius, discipline and attempt to unify the warring tribes of the Zulu Nation. With the force of arms and diplomacy, he unified his people so effectively that he was able to resist the invasion of white people from Europe and maintain peace among Black people in the south part of Africa. Shaka built a Zulu Nation that expanded over a hundred thousand square miles of land and created a military machine capable of inflicting heavy casualties on British troops and calvarymen who were armed with rifles, cannons, rockets and other advanced weapons.
