The Luweero Triangle, sometimes spelled Luwero Triangle, is an area of Uganda north of the capital Kampala, where, in 1981, Yoweri Museveni started the guerrilla war that propelled him and his National Resistance Movement into power in 1986.
The area was notorious for the persecution of civilians during the Luweero War, between the rebel National Resistance Army and the government of Milton Obote. Many residents were either forcibly recruited or killed by both sides during the five-year Ugandan Bush War, as Museveni's guerrilla forces started their advance from Kyankwanzi southeast toward Kampala. The following Buganda districts constitute the Luweero Triangle:
Kiboga District
Kyankwanzi District, formerly part of Kiboga
Nakaseke District, formerly part of Luweero
Nakasongola District, formerly part of Luweero
Luweero District
Mubende District
Mityana District, formerly part of Mubende
Wakiso District, formerly part of Mpigi
