Print this map. Swaziland, officially the Kingdom of Swaziland, is a relatively small, landlocked country in southern Africa. Bantu migrations in the 15th and 16th centuries from the Great Lakes regions of Eastern Africa formed the initial population base of the country. In 1899, as a result of the Anglo-Boer war, Britain transformed this small country into a protectorate under its direct control.
