Queen Nzinga best remembers her resistance to Portuguese and releases her people from slavery. Queen Nzinga is thought to have been born in the early 1580s. Nzinga's father, Ngola Kiluanji Kia Samba, is the ruler of the people of Ndongo. In the same year Nzinga was born, the king began to guide his people against the Portuguese colonialists.
