	Buganda's Founding (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-06)

		The ease with which Kintu was accepted by all the clan elders, and the elaborate power sharing arrangement that was established after his accession to the throne would appear to support the contention that indeed he was a returning native born prince rather than an unknown foreign born invader.

	The Head Heeb: The lost counties strike again
		The referendum was held in 1964 and, after the counties voted to return to Bunyoro, soldiers loyal to the Buganda king went on a rampage and brought the country to the verge of civil war.
		The traditional ruler of Bunyoro, which was also restored to corporate existence in the 1990s, may also file suit with respect to the Buganda Land Board's ownership of land in the lost counties.
		Here, though, there may not be any settled rights that are in danger; Buganda sovereignty is a dead issue, and the ground rents for the disputed land go to a quasi-state corporation with primarily cultural responsibility.
