Wakanda is a nation of vast contrasts. While tribal in government and relatively primitive in certain aspects of its culture, Wakanda possesses technology often more sophisticated than anywhere else on Earth.

	Until relatively recently, the Wakandans lived as their ancestors did, primarily a hunter-gatherer society with some cultivation of crops. Central to the Wakandan's myth and ritual was a small mountain of ore which according to legends fell from the sky. This meteoric ore was later found to be [[Vibranium]], an extraterrestrial metal capable of absorbing all sonic vibrations. For generations, the Wakandans worshiped at the site of the mound and founded the Cult of the Panther, which paid homage to their native predator, the black panther, which guarded the sacred mountain. It all changed when a British hunting expedition happened to take note of the unusual mound of ore. The renegade scientist [[Klaw\|Ulysses Klaw]] attempted to forcibly seize the valuable Vibranium, but he was opposed by [[Black Panther (T'Chaka)\|T'Chaka]], the chieftain of the Wakandas as well as the head of the Black Panther Cult. T'Chaka was slain by Klaw's mercenaries, but it was his son, [[Black Panther (T'Challa)\|T'Challa]], who managed to drive the foreign invaders away. Realizing the vast wealth of the Vibranium deposit, the Wakandas quickly became one of the wealthiest countries in the world for merely small quantities of Vibranium.

	Wakanda burst upon the public scene when T'Challa invited the [[Fantastic Four]] to his country as guests.

The Fantastic Four forgave him for his seeming hostilities and helped him battle Klaw, who had returned to make a bid to steal the Vibranium, this time with a weapon utilizing Vibranium acquired illegally on the free market. Although he has taken numerous short leaves from the kingdom (such as his stint of membership among the [[Avengers]]), T'Challa has learned that he cannot lead his people without living among them. He still strives to reconcile the polar extremes of Wakanda culture, to make the tribal and the technological peaceably coexist.
