Zanzibari War (The End of Peace Map Game)

The Zanzibari War was a Military Conflict between the British and French Colonial Empires in the the region of Zanzibar in which both Britain and France had claims on.

Background
France invaded Zanzibar in 1881 as part as a Project to establish a new French Colony in which would soon come to be known as French East Africa and advanced towards the city of Bagamoyo crushing the Zanzibari Army. However the British stepped in and after signing a treaty with the Zanzibari Sultan in 1882, Zanzibar became a British Protectorate or what was not occupied by the French. For the next 3 Years, France and Britain would lay claim over all of Zanzibar with Britain using the Treaty they signed with the Sultan as justification and the French using their conquest of most of Zanzibar before the British-Zanzibari Treaty as legitimate enough to hold claim over Zanzibar. Eventually the situation escalated during the Brussels Conference in which French delegates refused to acknowledge British control over all of Zanzibar and as a result Britain attacked the French East African Army that had already been massing in the Zanzibar.

War
With Troops recruited form South Africa, a British Army of 80,000 Men engaged the French in the city of Bagamoso with France only having a force of 34,000 Men in the area being heavily outnumbered by the British. the following Battle was a disaster for the French as the British scored a Significant victory over the French as the French Army was forced to retreat back towards Mombassa where they had started their conquest of Zanzibar 4 years ago. Not willing to suffer any further defeats, King Henri VI requested a ceasefire as he did not wish to be humiliated by the British as Henri VI agreed to hand over Southern Zanzibar until the OTL Kenyan Border to the British.
