Amago Haruhisa vs Yuhi V Musinga

Amago Haruhisa led a large army to besiege Gassantoda Castle, held by the Mouri clan. The siege failed after several months, marking a major defeat for the Amago and the beginning of their decline.

Amago Haruhisa's forces were defeated by the Mouri clan at Oshikibata in Aki Province. This loss further weakened the Amago and allowed the Mouri to expand into Amago territory.

Amago Haruhisa died suddenly at the age of 47, likely from illness. His death left the Amago clan without a strong leader, leading to internal strife and the eventual destruction of the clan by the Mouri.

Yuhi V Musinga became mwami of Rwanda after a coup killed his half-brother Mibambwe IV Rutarindwa. His mother Kanjogera and her allies installed him as a child ruler, with real power held by the queen mother and her faction.

Yuhi V Musinga signed a treaty with the German Empire, placing Rwanda under German protection. This agreement formalized colonial rule, with the mwami retaining limited authority under German supervision.

After Belgium took control of Rwanda from Germany in 1916, Yuhi V Musinga resisted Belgian efforts to abolish the ubuhake system and reduce his authority. He refused to implement colonial reforms, leading to tensions with Belgian administrators.

Belgian colonial authorities deposed Yuhi V Musinga for his refusal to cooperate with their reforms and his opposition to Christianity. He was exiled to Moba in the Belgian Congo, where he died in 1944.
