	Uganda before 1900 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Before the region that is today Uganda was made into a British colony at the end of the nineteenth century it was divided between several closely related kingdoms.
		Uganda's strategic position along the central African Rift Valley, its favorable climate at an altitude of 1,200 meters and above, and the reliable rainfall around the Lake Victoria Basin made it attractive to African cultivators and herders as early as the 4th century BC.
		The third type of state to emerge in Uganda was that of Buganda, on the northern shores of Lake Victoria.

	History
		Uganda is one of the most heterogenous countries in the world, given its small size into which a mosaic of tribes, dialects and cultures has been squeezed over the last 1,000 or more years.
		Uganda's cultures remained intact but trouble started as early as the 1920s when Baganda peasant farmers questioned the rationale of giving chiefs too much land and power.
		Uganda got her independence on October 9, 1962 after a short stint of self-rule, with the Democratic Party, headed by Benedicto Kiwanuka, a Muganda lawyer, losing out to UPC which was headed by Milton Obote, a Langi from the north.

		Final details concerning the administration of Uganda were settled by a series of agreements in 1900, the most comprehensive of which guaranteed special status to Buganda, including the continuation of its social and political system.

	CDC - Reanalyzing the 1900–1920 Sleeping Sickness Epidemic in Uganda
		From 1900 to 1920, the Busoga region of Uganda experienced a large-scale epidemic of the disease, during which an estimated 250,000 people (1), a third of the population of the region, died (Figure 1).
