A little research

Today I did a little bit of general research on South Africa.
South Africa was originally "found" by Dutch Farmers, more commonly referred to as "The Boers" in 1652. Then in 1806, the British took over and the Boers left to find their own republics. In the late 1800's, the discovery of diamonds and gold increased wealth of the country and The British became even more hierarchically significant. In 1899 The Boers tried to resist the British but lost in war which lasted until 1902. Now the British and the Afrikaners, which were more modern versions of the Boers were the major rulers of South Africa. But then in 1994, the first multi-racial election allowed a black majority rule.
