Queen Mbande Zinga was the sister and advisor of the king of Ngola (today Angola) and served as his representative in negotiating treaties with the Portuguese. She became queen in 1624 and appointed women, including her two sisters Kifunji and Mukumbu, to all government offices.

When the Portuguese broke the peace treaty, she led her largely female army against them while also conquering nearby kingdoms in an attempt to build a strong enough confederation to drive the Portuguese out of Africa. She accepted a truce and then agreed to a peace treaty in 1635. She continued to rule her people and lived to be 81. When Angola became an independent nation in 1975, a street in Luanda was named in her honor.
