But we know.. Every thing concerning South Africa will end up being a discussion about white people. (even on a thread about South African tribes) .you folks need to get of this morbid fascination with white people. it's annoying

Many of you Nairalanders call me Zulu to insult me, which defeats the purpose because I'm Sotho. So, I often laugh at you.

I am a MoSotho and I speak SeSotho. We make up roughly 8% of South Africa's population and historically originate from the snowy mountain kingdom of Lesotho which is ruled by King Letsie III, and is completely surrounded by South Africa, and our national animal is the horse.

The iconic elements of the BaSotho culture are our blankets and hats (which are featured in the Wakanda movie), as well as the horse and snowy landscapes.

It is interesting to know that there are more Basotho people in SA than in Lesotho which has a population of 2.3 million people, compared to almost 5 million in South Africa.

Most Sotho people in SA are concentrated in Lesotho's neighbouring SA provinces of the Free State, Gauteng, North West and the Eastern Cape.

The Sotho people are most related to the Tswana people of Botswana and BaPedi people found in the northern-most province of Limpopo in South Africa. The 3 groups belong to the so-called Sotho languages.

Contrary to the insults on Nairaland, Zulus belong to the Nguni group made up of other tribes including the Xhosa, Swatis from Eswatini and Ndebele from Zimbabwe.

So hope next time you're tempted to call me Zulu - you'll notice how i just don't give a dang.

Shalom.

Enjoy the pics of my Sotho people.
Nevermind them boss, They're ignorant.. The only thing they know and milk to death about South Africa is that it has whites, their beloved whites

Let us school you and empty brain
Black South African tribes consist of the following..
Sotho (have own country)
Tswana (have own country)
Zulu
Xhosa
Ndebele
Tsonga
Swati(have own country)
Pedi
Venda
and "colored" if you will
Hunter-gatherer tribes (San, Khoi, Griqua) etc
if they have their own country, they should be classified as a tribe under south Africa no more ..



So op is technically not a south African but a Lesothos or whatever they call themselves..


Which is your tribe ??

I was just doing the sum up in my head since he said the largest tribe only takes up 22% of the south African population .. Except if the values are wrong then the only logical conclusion thereafter is that the white folks and the foreigners makes up the rest of the population...

Black South Africans make 80% of the overall South African population but in your mind the rest is white..no surprises though

that is a completely different story ..

They migrated to Nigeria.. They're originally from Niger .. In short, they're not recognized officially when listing out tribes from Nigeria...

Actually thanks for reminding me - BaSotho, through the wise manoeuvres of then King Moshoeshoe, ensured the kingdom remained independent from South Africa and its boer colonial & apartheid systems.

See video above.
Wise decision.

"Landlord ,travel and see". You will finally leave the country and depend on the goodwill of the country you travel to.

Then you will come back here and apologise. Local village champion. Such a nutter.
