Ndongo
From Freepedia
The Ndongo are a Bantu-speaking people inhabiting northern Angola.
The Kingdom of Ndongo is first recorded in the fifteenth century. It was one of a number of vassal states to Kongo that existed in the region, though Ndongo was the most powerful of these. After several decades of resistance the kingdom was subdued by the Portuguese in 1671, but it continued to appear on maps into the 19th century. The Portuguese colony, extending far beyond the Ndongo Kingdom, it's name was derived from the of the Ndongo king the ngola, also the source of the name Angola.
