Very interesting what you write. I was reading up on the Boer Wars recently, there were actually 2 of them. If I remember right the British lost the first one very badly, the whole platoon was slaughtered, and won the second one but only just after a very intense battle.
Interesting that even back then it was the Afrikaners, the continental Dutch / Flemish population in South Africa not the English which went on to invent and promote Apartheid perhaps half a century after the Boer wars. That was to segregate on colour so they were obviously over the Boer Wars when they made it and just wanted to split up whites, blacks and colourds although practically, just white from the rest. And that after the British kept the Boers in concentration camps:
Looks like the English had both white Afrikaners and blacks in their concentration camps :
It is just interesting that the Afrikaners ultimately went on to want real segregation for whites although they were abused by the British earlier. In more recent times with Orania though, the Boers want to keep out English speakers as well, it's gone beyond just living away from blacks in the modern era, they only want to live among other Afrikaners.
