Biography

He was a prince of the Tswana-Sotho Kingdom and the heir of his father, Mokhachane I (h). It was largely thanks to him that the tribes inhabiting the territory of the future Tswana Kingdom agreed to the centralization of power. Firstly, he acquired a huge dragon egg for his father's rebirth. Secondly, with the help of reincarnated Mokhachane he established control over the neighboring tribes through raiding their lands. Thirdly, he used the threat of the raids organized by the slave-takers to convince all the smaller kingdoms to acknowledge his father's leadership.

He understood the importance of modern technology and weapons, which he tried to acquire through trade and negotiations.
