Rise of Ndongo
The kingdom of Ndongo was a tributary to the kingdom of Kongo along with various other polities outside of Kongo proper. The Mbundu in the south and the BaKongo in the north were always at odds, but Kongo managed to exact tribute from these states since before the coming of the Portuguese.

Famous quotes containing the word rise:
“If you complain of people being shot down in the streets, of the absence of communication or social responsibility, of the rise of everyday violence which people have become accustomed to, and the dehumanization of feelings, then the ultimate development on an organized social level is the concentration camp.... The concentration camp is the final expression of human separateness and its ultimate consequence. It is organized abandonment.”
—Arthur Miller (b. 1915)
