Wikipedia:WikiAfrica/Stubs/Karonga Wars

The Karonga Wars (also referred to as the Arab-Swahili War) were a series of conflicts over an eight year period mainly over the commercial dominance of the northern Lake Malawi. The chief antagonist war was Mlozi, initially fighting with the British traders and the Ngonde people. Later, the colonial government led by Harry Johnston got involved at the end of which Mlozi was tried for treason and hanged. [1][2]
