The narrative explores the lineage and political dynamics of a royal family in Africa, focusing on Prince NSANGOU's rise to power as the 15th king, following the expulsion of the usurper "Mfon" NGOUWOU. It highlights the significance of lineage, as NJOYA, the son of NSANGOU and grandson of NJIMOLUH SEIDOU NJOYA, inherits a legacy tied to notable ancestors. Following NSANGOU's death in battle around 1889, NJOYA ascends to the throne during his minority, with his mother, NJAPDOUNKÉ, acting as regent, supported by the loyal servant GBENTKOM NDOMBOUO.
