FUN FACT: The Zulu Army Managed To Defeat The British Many Consecutive Times Before Their Defeat At Rorke's Drift. | Imperial British military forces 
engaging the Zulu army, smugly 
confident in their ability to crush

soldiers and nearly completely break 
their morale entirely, due to their superior 
military tactics, iron-class discipline, 
intense training, and Spartan-caliber 
soldiers - even though they used 
only iron-tipped spears and shields 
of oxen-hide (and only a few outdated
