Nice red example of Wilhelm II. The colony was established by treaties with local chiefs in 1884. It became a protectorate in 1891 and a full colony in 1897. The territory was established in what then was known as Tanganyika (Tanzania). The colony was lost after WWI. Please see the description under the 5 Heller piece for more information.
