Queen Of The Congo

Warrior Princess

After her father died, the warrior princess (Nzinga of the Congo empire) and her legions of warrior women lead a revolt in to end the Portuguese domination of their kingdom (in 1640).

The warrior princess  and her troops were trained in the use of weaponry such as axes, swords, bows and arrows. They were also trained in the knowledge of battle strategy and tactics from the time they were little girls. Their dedication to the art of war is what finally made the war wearied Portuguese sue for peace.
