dc.description.abstract	Following the partition of Africa, Tanganyika (mainland) was declared a German colony in 1885. The German.s had a brief rule, which was terminated with their defeat in the First World War. By the time the Germans co-Ionized Tanganyika, they found that Kiswahili had already spread in the interior by Arab and Swahili caravan traders. There were also-coastal people, Kiswahili speakers, who had settled in such inland centres such as Tabora and Ujiji. Kiswahili was already serving as a form of 'linqua-franca' in the mainland Tanganyika long before the advent _of the German colonization. During the German rule, they made use of this rich 'lingua-franca' in education and administration.	en_US
