Bugangaizi

Bugangaizi is a county in western Uganda that was part of the heartland of Bunyoro and contained the burial sites of several of its kings. After the British conquest it was transferred to Buganda in 1900 and became one of the "lost counties". The referendum of 1964 returned it, with Buyaga, to Bunyoro, ending seventy years of Ganda rule there.
