Eastern Lunda

The Lunda people of the Luapula River valley in Zambia and DR Congo are called by others the Eastern Lunda to distinguish them from the 'western' Lunda people who remained in the heartland of the former Lunda Kingdom, but they themselves would use Kazembe-Lunda or Luunda with an elongated 'u' to make that distinction. (The name 'Lunda' may also be spelled Luunda).

The Eastern Lunda migrated in the 18th Century to their current area under the leader Mwata Kazembe. Their neighbours in northern Zambia to whom they are allied, the Bemba, did so at the same time, and the Eastern Lunda took on the Bemba language in place of the Chilunda, their original language. Their (western) Lunda compatriots in the North-Western Province of Zambia still speak Chilunda however.

gollark: Also the orechid.
gollark: Right, I forgot Intel had actually released working 10nm products now. Back to confused, I guess.
gollark: Oh, so they're harder to cool despite the same total heat output because of the greater density of 7nm? That does make more sense.
gollark: I guess that you could maybe, I don't know, have differences in *measured* temperature depending on where the thermal sensors are, or have different fan control. But that couldn't really change total heat output.
gollark: The *only way* it can heat up is by converting electricity to heat when operating.
