Clans

The kingdom has a rich culture and is made up of more than 50 clans. The heads of these clans are known as the Abataka. Every Muganda belongs to a clan, which is passed down from the father. However, it is only the Kabaka who belongs to his mother’s clan rather than the royal clan. Other princes and princesses belong to the royal clan, Abalangira.
