Lesotho
Définition
- Lesotho, known as Basutoland during a brief period of colonialism, emerged as a polity in the 1820s when Sotho and Nguni clans fled to King Moshoeshoe I, seeking refuge from King Shaka's Mfecane. Although many view present-day Lesotho as culturally homogeneous, what now constitutes the Basotho were fragments of distinct ethnolinguistic groups brought together by the charismatic king.
