S4E8: Andrianjaka - The Indivisible Sun

 

Besakana with its original thatched roof 
Today's episode follows the life of Andrianjaka, the Mpanjaka Imerina most famous for his conquest of Analamanga and the subsequent establishment of the Rova of Antananarivo. Additionally, we will discuss the reforms he made to the Merina religious system by canonizing the sampy, as well as his consequential decision to expel the remaining Vazimba population from his kingdom.
