KuLuangwa kunogara nzou dzinenge zvikamu zviviri muzvitatu zvenhamba dzenzou dzeZambia. Kare, huwandu hwenzou muZambia hwakasvika zviuru mazana maviri nemakumi mashanu. Asi kubva kumakore ekuma250, nekuda kwekuvhima zvisiri pamutemo, huwandu hwenzou munyika hwakadzikira zvakanyanya. Pakazosvika ma1950, nzou gumi nesere chete dzasara muZambia.

Kare, nharaunda dzenzvimbo iyi dzaiwana mari shoma kana isina kubva mukushanyirwa, uye mune dzimwe nguva, vagari veko ivo pachavo vaiita basa rekuvhima nzou uye vaive vasina chikonzero chekumisa basa iri.
VaSayer vakati sangano iri rakashanda nehurumende yemuno kuti riite gwara rekugovana mari. Vanhu vakaratidzwawo nzira dzakasiyana siyana dzemari kunze kwekuvhima zvisiri pamutemo, sekuvandudzwa kwemasango.

Nekuda kweizvi, kuvhima zvisiri pamutemo munzvimbo iyi kwadzikira nechikamu che96%. Parizvino pane kudiwa kwekuchengetedzwa kwakabatanidzwa muIndia neNew Zealand, uko ingwe nemhuka dzemugungwa dziri kubirwa.
Mari yezvirongwa zvine chinangwa chekumisa kuvhima zvisiri pamutemo iri kuwedzera. Muna Chikunguru apfuura, hurumende yeUK yakavimbisa £44,5 miriyoni kuzvirongwa zvekurwisa kutengeswa kwemhuka dzesango pasi rose. Michael Gove, Munyori Wezvakatipoteredza weUK, akataura kuti "zvinetso zvezvakatipoteredza hazvizivi miganhu uye zvinoda kurongwa kwenyika dzese."
