1888 CE to 1899 CE

Mashonaland is one of the regions that the country is divided into following occupation by the Pioneer Column in 1890 and designated the extent of territory under administration of the British South Africa Company as distinct from the remainder of the territory that is directly under the control of the Matabele king, Lobengula, which is named Matabeleland when it is occupied in 1893.
   
The two have separate administrations for part of the BSA Company colonial period.

Revolt breaks out against the British South Africa Company in 1896, led by priests of the Mwari religion.

The British prevail, executed some leaders, and try to reform the system.
