Step-by-step explanation:

Shaka kaSenzangakhona also referred to as Sigidi kaSenzangakhona and Shaka Zulu was born in July, 1787 in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Shaka became the king of the Zulu kingdom in 1816 and he ruled until the 22nd of September, 1828, when he was assassinated in KwaDukuza, South Africa by his two half-brothers named, Mhlangana and Dingane.

Shaka was a Zulu leader and organizer of a violent, militaristic empire that were armed with assegais, a form of long-bladed, short spear with an easy to wield handle. This weapon is considered to be very deadly and as such contributed to the success Shaka and his warriors had in their fight with other tribes.
