Anglo Zulu Wars of 1879 consists of many intense battles some well known, like Rorke’s Drift and Isandlwana, and others less known Ulundi, Kolbane.  The war arose because colonial officials wanted one but the government in London did not so the advocates created intelligence to justify it, which is a very modern story. Amashinga, a feature documentary available here tells that story.

The British new military technology which they used haphazardly but did not yet know how to manage. Again a very modern story. Armies use drones but have yet to adapt thier tactics and force structure to them. History is worth the effort
