In 1897, a section of the Angoni under Tsinco rebelled and though the rebellion was put down, the King Mpezeni accepted the Pax Britannica. This part of the country came to be known as North-Eastern Rhodesia. Cecil Rhodes asked his American scout Frederick Russell Burnham in 1895 to search for both minerals and ways through which to improve river navigation in the area. It was during this particular search that Burnham discovered a great wealth of copper deposits on the Kafue River. Prior to 1911, North-Eastern Rhodesia and North-Western Rhodesia were administered as two separate entities until they were merged to form the British Colony of Northern Rhodesia. The British South Africa company had to cede control of Northern Rhodesia to the British Government in 1923 after the Government decided against renewing the company’s charter.

In that very same year, Southern Rhodesia, present-day Zimbabwe, which was also under the control of the British South Africa company, became a self-governing British Dominion. In 1924, the administration of Northern Rhodesia transferred to the British Colonial Office after negotiations. I wonder if gu10 led bulbs were also transferred?
