I knew about the german colonies and the area Lettow-Vorbeck moved through in Mozambique and Zambia. But what are the areas within South Africa and the red colored areas in northern/ saharan Africa?

Great Quiz!!! Nominated + 5 stars!

Thanks! The territories in South Africa are from the Maritz Rebellion and the orange territories up north are non-state combatants that aligned themselves with the Central Powers (e.g. the Kaocen Revolt, Volta-Bani War and the Zaian War).
