In 1890, British troops invaded Buganda. Captain Frederick Frederick Lugard, the agent of the Royal British East Africa Company (later Governor of Hong Kong Luigi), forced King Mwaanga of Buganda to sign protection treaties with him twice. In June 1894, the British government signed the New Testament with Buganda, and Buganda officially became a British protectorate. Then, in 1896, Britain extended its protection to all of Uganda.

The people of all parts of Uganda resisted the British aggression tenaciously. In 1893, Britain sent troops to occupy the Kingdom of Bunioro, and King Kabarega led some of the people to wage guerrilla warfare for six years. In 1897, King Mwaanga of Buganda raised his army against Britain and later joined Kabarega in the Rango region. In April 1899, the two kings were captured and the uprising failed. In order to facilitate its rule, Britain preserved the feudal kingdoms such as Buganda, Bunioro, Toro, Ancole and their monarchs, of which Buganda reserved more rights. But the administrative power is in the hands of British colonial officials headed by the Governor. It was not until after the second World War that individual Africans were allowed to participate in the executive and legislative bodies of the colonial authorities. Economically, Britain has turned Uganda into a supplier of cotton, coffee and other agricultural products, trying to prevent Africans from developing their own business and processing industries.

National independence

After the first World War, the long-standing dissatisfaction of the Ugandan people with colonial rule finally broke out. A national general strike and rural riots broke out in 1918. In 1919 Buganda launched a democratic movement under the leadership of the Bataka Party and the African Farmers' Union of Uganda. In 1921, Uganda's first national political party, the Ugandan National Congress Party, was established, which put forward the requirements of universal suffrage, the establishment of an autonomous government and the control of the economy by Africans. From 1921 to 1928, the people of Uganda fought for the release of King Muteza II of Buganda, who was exiled in England.

Contrast: a unique African coffee is very similar to Indonesian coffee, which is very similar to Mbale in Mount Elgonne in the east and other producing areas near the border of the Democratic Republic of Congo in the west, with the export name Wugar. The official ranks are Oaganic (Organic), Bugisu AA, Bugisu A, Bugisu B, Bugisu PB, Wugar, Drugar and other unlisted grades. To find a good Ugandan coffee, you must first recognize the BugisuAA, An and PB grades, but because the country is inland and has many transport problems, it often comes to raw beans with low moisture content and not green appearance. However, Ugandan coffee is not a type of coffee that emphasizes rising aroma, as long as the raw beans are not and turn 100 or yellowed, they can generally have a good flavor in the producing area, with a low ripe fruit aroma, such as the taste of red wine, and thick mellow thickness. it is similar to some Kenyan beans with low flavor, but it also has a mild soil flavor, so it is quite different from other East African countries in flavor characteristics. On the contrary, it is somewhat similar to Asian Indonesian Sulawesi Tonaga coffee and Java manor coffee. The baking degree between City+ and Full City+ is all better.

Ugandan coffee beans have a unique flavor of delicate taste, which is very suitable for making Italian and other flavors of coffee. More importantly, Ugandan coffee beans are strictly screened according to the standards of the international market to ensure their high quality and pollution-free characteristics.

Africa is the hometown of the two major varieties of coffee, Arabica and Robusta, while Uganda, which is located in eastern Africa and enjoys the laudatory names of "plateau water hometown" and "Pearl of East Africa", is believed by many people to be the birthplace of Robusta.
