Dingane

...First, he defeated the Mthethwa and Ndwandwe tribes and unified the Natal region. In 1824, he established friendly relations with British settlers in Port Natal (now Durban) and obtained firearms, which he used to further expand the territory of his kingdom. In 1828, his half-brother Dingane (c. 1795-1840) killed Shaka and took the throne, and attempted to expand his territory further.

Pretorius and his party, and in 1840 he was dethroned by his brother Mpande (c. 1800-73).
