Note 201 — Chapter XIV · THE BRITISH IN AFRICA, III (Egypt and Eastern Africa.)

The Kabaka of Buganda has been, down to 1912, a minor under a native regency. He is descended from a dynasty which has apparently ruled in Buganda since a period contemporary with the reign of Henry IV in England. This dynasty, like most others in Equatorial East Africa, appears to have been founded by a man of Gala descent.
