Lewanika

King of Barotseland (1842-1916) · Politicians · Died at 74

Lewanika was the Lozi Litunga (King) of Barotseland from 1878 to 1884 and again from 1885 to 1916. A detailed, although biased, description of King 'Lubossi' can be found in the Portuguese explorer Alexandre de Serpa Pinto's 1878-1879 travel narrative Como eu atravessei a África.

Lewanika is read about 15 times a day, in 7 languages.

A typical day, 30 days to 12 June 2026

The middle day of the days counted, so one week of news cannot move it. The line under it is the last 60 days, one point a day.
