House of Dlamini

The Dlaminis ( the reigning Swazi Royal Family ) are an indigenous African royal house of Swaziland, a southern African nation of which Mswati III is king. Scholarly history of Swaziland shows that independent chiefdoms and small kingdoms dominated by various clans were initially conquered and incorporated into the growing Ngwane kingdom ruled by members of the Dlamini clan sometime in the 18th and 19th centuries, long before British colonisation.^[1]
