The Mau Mau Rebellion, also known as the Mau Mau Uprising, was a violent conflict that took place in Kenya between 1952 and 1960. The rebellion was led by the Mau Mau, a secret society composed mainly of Kikuyu people who were opposed to British colonial rule in Kenya.
The Mau Mau Rebellion was characterized by brutal acts of violence on both sides, with the Mau Mau targeting British settlers, African collaborators, and loyalist Kikuyu, while the British colonial authorities responded with harsh measures, including mass arrests, torture, and executions.
The rebellion was eventually suppressed by the British military and colonial forces, leading to the capture of many Mau Mau leaders and the declaration of a state of emergency in Kenya. The conflict had a lasting impact on Kenya, leading to significant social and political changes, including the end of British colonial rule and the eventual independence of Kenya in 1963.
