The British army decided to conquer zululand, and setup small garrisons of troops to scout it. These were massacred by the [<a href="/topic/12131/zulus">Zulus</a>], and so enraged, the Mighty British Empire rained its fury on the tribesmen. For several weeks the [Zulu] tribes [laid low], hoping to evade detection. But some 1,200 British Troops and 300 tag-alongs (peaceful natives, soldiers wives etc.) were cut off by water and decided to camp in territory the [<a href="/topic/12131/zulus">zulus</a>] were watching. Overnight, the <a href="/topic/12131/zulus">Zulus</a> gathered and sent 7,000 soldiers onto the camp, killing all but a handful of tag-alongs who escaped when they heard screaming. The Zulu took thier guns and marched on [Rorkes Drift], a small military hosital. [Rorkes drift] was manned by 97 ready soldiers, housed 36 wounded, 14 helpful natives five officers and two lieutenants, one of which was new to the area. They recieved news of the impending Zulu attack, but the new liuetenant demanded that they stay to defend the hospital and chapel. A passing preacher intimidated the natives to throw down thier guns and leave, because of the extreme odds. With Just 141 soldiers (One of the tag-alongs rushed to help them) they took on 4,500 Zulu warriors, 1,200 of which were armed and killed 2,500 [<a href="/topic/12131/zulus">Zulus</a>]. In comparison, 15 British died on the day, and 8 later died of [battle wounds] before the <a href="/topic/12131/zulus">Zulus</a> saluted fellow braves and left. Rorkes Drift signalled the unparalled training of the British [amry], but also that the Zulu army, which had impressive capabilities, wouldnt even last until 1880 (Rorkes drift was 22nd-23rd January [1879]). Eventually, the Zulu army had to surrender, and became the exploit of the rich. Zulu tribesmen still inhabit [South Africas]  east coast and centre, but are no longer the dominating force.</p>
