Ngwane People
The Ngwane were the dominant group north of the Ndwandwe and would later become known as the Swazi. During the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, they inhabited the region north of the Pongola River. Their kingdom would eventually evolve into the modern Swazi nation under the leadership of King Sobhuza I and his successors.
