This statement BEST describes the cause of the Zulu War of 1879:

C) The Zulu attempted to resist submitting to British rule.


After the Zulu chief was demanded to do away with native customs and way of life, disbanding the Zulu Army, accept European rule, and the discovery of diamonds leading to “the Diamond Rush”, the Zulu unsuccessfully attempted to avoid British rule. The Anglo-Zulu War lasted from January to July 1879.
