North Buganda

North of Buganda's lakeshore heartland lay a frontier with the kingdom of Bunyoro. Bulemeezi was among the territories divided by the rivalry of the two powers: Buganda's early domain included part of it, while other lands belonged to Bunyoro. As the Ganda kingdom expanded, chiefs and royal armies extended its authority over neighbouring districts. Traditions of the kingdom recall campaigns that brought northern Bulemeezi under Buganda, adding to the lands governed in the kabaka's name.
