Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Before the region that is today Uganda was made into a British protectorate 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. Core samples from the bottom of Lake Victoria have revealed that dense rainforest once covered the land around the lake. Centuries of cultivation removed almost all the original tree cover. The cultivators who gradually cleared the forest were probably Bantu speaking people, whose slow but inexorable expansion gradually took over most of Africa south of the Sahara Desert.
