Xhosa: Xhosa is one of the types, and they are living in south-east of South Africa. Xhosa-speaking people are divided into several groups.

There is also a theory that the word xhosa derives from a word in some Khoi-khoi or San language meaning "fierce" or "angry", the **amaXhosa** being the fierce people. There are approximately 8 million Xhosas across South Africa, and Xhosa is the second most common home language in South Africa.

Shaka Zulu is regarded as the founder of the modern Zulu nation. After he was killed by his half brother and he took over the throne, many of the supporters of Shaka execute. This led to some broke out of the kingdom and lived after that Shaka had told them.
