Toro Agreement

Similarities can be drawn with the Uganda Agreement between Britain and the Baganda chiefs in the same year. All uncultivated land was declared Crown land, the Omukama (regent) and allied chiefs were afforded freehold land, and monarchic powers were extended. The Toro Agreement served to consolidate Britain’s position in Uganda.
