Question

massai community lost their grazing land?why? Give suitable reason​

Answer 1

Answer:

• During 1885 the Maasailand was divided between British and German territories.

• The movement of the Maasai community was restricted by new boundary.

• In addition vast tract of pastureland was converted into game reserves for the pleasure of Rulers which became another reason for reduction of the pastureland for Maasai.

• During nineteenth century, European im perial powers captured Africa and scrambled boundaries, ultimately taking over 60% of land from Maasais.

• They restricted Maasais to a dry zone with uncertain rainfall and poor grasslands.

• Due to this Maasais lost their grazing lands and this affected their lives and their so cial relationships.
