Battle of Isandlwana

The Battle of Isandlwana took place in 1879 during the Anglo-Zulu War, where a large British force was defeated by the Zulu army. The British underestimated the Zulu's military strength and tactics. Despite having more advanced weapons, they failed to effectively coordinate their defenses. The Zulu fighters used clever strategies and overwhelming numbers to attack the British camp unexpectedly, resulting in a significant victory for the Zulu. This battle is notable for demonstrating how well-organized indigenous forces can overcome technologically superior opponents when they leverage strategy and local knowledge.
