Bujumbura grew from a small village after it became a military post in German East Africa in 1889. After World War I it was made the administrative center of the Belgian League of Nations mandate of Ruanda-Urundi. The city's name was changed from Usumbura to Bujumbura when Burundi became independent in 1962. Air Burundi, the national airline of Burundi, has its head office in Bujumbura.  A number of airlines have daily and weekly flights to Burundi.  They include Kenya Airways (KQ), Precision Air, Rwandair and Fly 540
