In the 1962 general elections the party won seven seats, becoming the third-largest faction in the Legislative Assembly and held the balance of power.
Many of the historical events in these three regions happened simultaneously. Thus, Zambia's history, like that of many African nations, cannot be presented perfectly chronologically. The early history of the peoples of modern Zambia is deduced from oral records, archaeology, and written records, mostly from non-Africans. [18]
