Brief History. Settled in the 1200s by a tribe whose descendants remain important in the country, and by the Ngoni some 600 years later, the area that would become Malawi was made a British-controlled protectorate in 1891. The Nyasaland protectorate federated with both the Rhodesias (later Zambia and Zimbabwe) in 1953 with the intention of seeking independence. Self government was granted in 1962 and Malawi Congress party leader Dr. H. Kamuzu Banda became prime minister in 1963. The next year, full independence was achieved.
