Dutch Dutch India East Company (1652-1691) One of the major European trading houses sailing the spice route to the East, had no intention of colonising the area, instead wanting only to establish a secure base camp where passing ships could shelter, and where hungry sailors could stock up on fresh supplies of meat, fruit, and vegetables. Took advantage of superior weaponry to gradually gain control of more land and more resources Many owned slaves

British In 1795, England took control of the colony for the first time, a move made permanent in 1806 British colonial rule was often just as brutal towards native Africans as the Dutch had been, especially in military conflicts Humanitarian pressure and changing views on slavery led to legislation establishing legal rights and equality before the law for the Khoikhoi in the Cape colony in 1828, with all slaves to be fully freed by 1838 This led to the “Great Trek”

Great Trek “Great Trek" of the 1820s and 30s achieve both white control over African land and autonomy from the English. the trekkers began forging a new, distinct national and cultural identity, distinct from the Dutch and in opposition both to indigenous Africans and the English—Afrikaner nationalism The original trekkers had set out with the stated aim of preserving "proper relations between master and servant." Native Africans were recruited to work in the mines at low pay, segregated from whites and separated from women, and subjected to body parts searches to prevent any theft of diamonds.

Mfecane “Time of troubles” Period between the 1810s and 1830s where many waker groups in South Africa were consolidated or eliminated into larger African kingdoms with complex political systems Due in large part to scarce resources and land as well as drought

The Mineral Revolution 1867: huge diamond deposits founded by Afrikaner prospectors Made British want to be in control of interior SOuth Africa Needed cheap labor to support expensive machinery and poor- quality ore SLAVERY AND CIVIL RIGHTS CONNECTION Began to rule based on racial segregation

South African War (1899-1902) Also known as the second Anglo-Boer War Between British and Afrikaners British attempted a coup to gain more power of the mines British were terrible (concentration camps and scorched earth) Afrikaner nationalism grew 1910: British colonies and Afrikaner Republics joined together as Union of South Africa

Apartheid 1948- 1991 Don’t want to go into too much detail because of the fact that everyone elses presentations will focus more deeply on this era Nelson Mandela
