It was a British protectorate from the late 19th century until it gained independence on December 10\, 1963. \nUpon independence\, Zanzibar became a constitutional monarchy under Sultan Jamshid bin Abdullah. The island's political and economic power was dominated by an Arab minority\, while the African majority remained largely disenfranchised. Decades of inequality\, land ownership disputes\, and political suppression fueled resentment among the African population\, especially members of the Afro-Shirazi Party (ASP). \nIn the early morning hours of January 12\, 1964\, John Okello\, a Ugandan-born revolutionary aligned with the ASP\, led a surprise coup against the Sultan's government. \nRevolutionary forces seized police stations and the radio station in Zanzibar Town. The Sultan fled into exile\, and the Arab government was overthrown. Thousands of Arabs and South Asians were reportedly killed\, detained\, or expelled during the revolution. \nThe People's Republic of Zanzibar and Pemba was declared\, with Abeid Amani Karume\, leader of the ASP\, named President. \nThe new revolutionary government rapidly established diplomatic ties with socialist countries\, including the Soviet Union\, China\, and East Germany. To avoid becoming a Cold War flashpoint\, Zanzibar merged with Tanganyika on April 26\, 1964\, forming the United Republic of Tanzania.

It was fought mainly in the Luweero Triangle\, where the NRA established strongholds and built grassroots support among civilians. \nThe NRA gradually gained territory while Obote's government and later General Tito Okello\, who took power in a 1985 coup\, struggled to maintain control. \nOn January 26\, 1986\, the NRA captured the capital\, Kampala\, forcing Tito Okello's government to flee. Yoweri Museveni was sworn in as President of Uganda days later\, declaring the beginning of a "fundamental change" in Uganda's political system. \nNRM Liberation Day commemorates the end of political turmoil and military dictatorship\, the beginning of a new government that promised democracy and national unity\, and the sacrifice of fighters\, civilians\, and communities who supported the resistance.
