Rwenzururu region
Rwenzururu is a region in the Rwenzori Mountains of Uganda on the border of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, as well as an armed historical movement to achieve either autonomy or sovereignty for that region. It is also the name of a kingdom declared in that region. It includes the districts of Bundibugyo, Kasese and Ntoroko. == Background ==
The Rwenzururu region is inhabited by the Konjo and Amba peoples. In the early 20th century, these two tribes were integrated into the Kingdom of Toro as a political maneuver by the British colonialists: the neighboring Bunyoro monarchy was anti-colonialist (see 1907 Nyangire rebellion) and the British wished to strengthen the pro-British Toro. The Bakonjo and Baamba initially accepted being arbitrarily made subjects of the Toro monarch with resignation, but asked the Uganda Protectorate to provide them their own district in the 1950s, separate from the Toro District.〔Prunier, 82〕 The movement declared that they were not part of the Toro Kingdom on 30 June 1962, three months before national independence.〔("Our History" ), rwenzururu.com (accessed 6 June 2009)〕
