Habari!! or, Sopa!

A little about the Maasai people, from the "Lonely Planet Guide to Kenya":

"The Maasai first migrated to central Kenya from current day Sudan, but in the late 19th century, they were decimated by famine and disease, and their cattle herds were plagued by rinderpest. The British gazetted Maasai Mara National Reserve in the early 1960's, displacing the Maasai, and they slowly continued t annexe more and more Maasai. "
