A proposito di questo titolo

In Episode 3 of The Story of Madagascar, Lucas and Luna dive into the Franco-Hova Wars—the brutal conflict that ended the Merina monarchy and turned Madagascar into a French colony. They explore the reign of Queen Ranavalona III, the last sovereign of the island, and her prime minister Rainilaiarivony, who tried to modernize the kingdom while fending off European imperialism. The episode covers the causes of the First Franco-Hova War (1883–1885), including French demands for land and trade rights, and the Treaty of Tamatave that ceded Antsiranana (Diego Suarez). It then moves to the Second Franco-Hova War (1894–1895), where a French expeditionary force marched on Antananarivo, facing malaria and fierce Merina resistance. Lucas describes the fall of the capital, the exile of Ranavalona III to Réunion and later Algeria, and the dissolution of the Merina kingdom. The conversation also touches on the Menalamba rebellion—a grassroots uprising against French rule—and the lasting legacy of colonization on Madagascar's identity. Specific terms like "Hova," "Rainilaiarivony," "Menalamba," and "Toamasina" are woven into the narrative.
