Résumé

At the end of the nineteenth century Sayyid Khalid bin Barghash AlBuSa‘idi wished to rule his Swahili sultanate not as the puppet of the British but as an independent ruler. By seeking support from Germany, he provoked active opposition from Britain, then the ruling power in Zanzibar. As a result, his reign ended after only three days. This article uses material in the National Archives (Public Record Office), Kew, and in the Seychelles National Archives, Victoria, to document the tragedy of Sayyid Khalid’s exile from 1314 AH/AD 1896 when he sought asylum in Dar-es-Salaam, the capital of German East Africa, until 1345 AH/AD 1927 when he died in Mombasa, the capital of the Kenya Protectorate. Destiny decreed that Sayyid Khalid never returned to Zanzibar.
