[edit]

There is a notable and unfortunate inaccuracy on this Wikipedia page : Agoli-Agbo was not a "distant relative" of Behanzin but his half brother. The French needed a legitimate ruler to replace the deposed king, and could therefore not have chosen a "distant relative" whose ability to pacify Dahomey for the French administration would have been greatly hindered.
