Hundreds of thousands of unmarried girls in Africa topless and topless participate in the Reed Festival in Eswatini to run for Princess

Every August, Eswatini, which borders South Africa, holds the "Reed Festival". The "Reed Festival" is a strange festival in the Kingdom of Eswatini, held in late August or the first week of September every year. Folk figures in Eswatini say that the "Reed Festival" reflects the country's female culture and traditional habits.

The roofs of traditional houses in Eswatini are surrounded by reeds. Women are responsible for collecting reeds, so the "admission ticket" for girls during the "Reeds Festival" is a bunch of reeds. The king used this opportunity to hold a concubine selection. As long as the girls had an "admission ticket", they could go to Eswatini to select a concubine. Once selected by the king, these girls will receive a heavy betrothal gift of dozens of oxen and are expected to change the fate of their families.

According to reports, during this year's Reed Festival, King Mswati III plans to select a new concubine. Today, King Mswati III has 14 concubines.

From August 27 to September 2, 2014, during the annual "Reed Festival" selection event in the southern African country of Eswatini, nearly 100,000 unmarried virgins held reeds, bare their breasts, danced to music, and accepted the selection of King Mswati III. Many investigators suggest that only half of the number of teenage girls actually participated in the national festival. In addition, Zviritini, the Zulu King of South Africa who has six wives, also attended this "Reed Dance" festival.

At the "Reed Dance" event last August, 18-year-old Sintiswa Dlamini stood out and was selected as the new princess. Previously, she was already a finalist in the country's Miss Cultural Heritage Competition. Before officially marrying the king, she lived in seclusion in one of the king's vast palaces. However, South Africa's "Times" reported that the would-be princess, nicknamed "Naughty Cindy","is no longer a virgin, smokes and drinks, has tattoos, is a party girl, and dates the king's two sons." She married the king only because she was "poor."

This year, fewer young girls went to Eswatini to run for the princess than in previous years. Moreover, as soon as the selection campaign began, an unfortunate accident occurred. On the 28th, a truck loaded with a group of young girls went to the capital Baramne Wilderness to harvest reeds. However, the truck overturned on the way, causing 65 people to die. This incident has not yet been confirmed by the government of Eswatini.

Eswatini is the only absolute monarchy in sub-Saharan Africa, and the blocking party is exploited as a "terrible organization." The 46-year-old Mswati III has recruited concubines 14 times. Previously, queens Rahwara, Ramagwasa and Princess Angela fled to South Africa because they could not stand court life. Princess Notando Rabe was sent to the cold house for not abiding by women's customs. At present, his chief concubines include Ramotesa, Ramakhrangu, Raententesa and Raenkambull.
