Swahili people along East African coast are the native speakers of language! They’re own nation with language, culture and history

Rwandans and Burundians speak Swahili and there’s a dialect In Madagascar. Swahili is the lingua Franca of the Bantu people and it is even spoke by African Americans especially during the 70s

the name Swahili comes from lbn Batuta who came to East Africa 700 yrs plus ago he found a vibrant Muslim community in entire shore from zeila to Mozambique or musambiji they were shaffi Muslims and still are today they speak different dialects the biggest victims of the Berlin conference are the Swahili who divided into all countries of today's East Africa thus becoming minority under big tribe democracy it's amazing the language has a famous saying: mkosa kabila ni mtumwa meaning one with no tribe is a slave yet big tribers while using their language accuse them of having no tribe as they occupy their land using big tribe migration vote to dominate politics the church is the biggest aggressor to Swahili African civilization just as the missionaries wanted
