[edit] removed this

The Germans considered the area to be 'a Garden of Africa', seeing it as the most fertile part of former German East Africa [citation needed].


Because the article is talking about the ethnic group, but this sentence is about the geography of Tanzania.

I come from Tukuyu, actually born there,a small town in the district of Rungwe Mbeya region-one of the two most important towns of the Nyakyusa. The other town is Kyela near the shores of Lake Nyasa. Tukuyu was named Neu Langenburg by the Germans in view of the geogeaphical location of the town as you mention on the removed sentence. I believe the sentence should stay because it depicts a geographical scenario which has had a big impact on the Nyakyusa who lived in and around the smal town.
