3 Apartheid Took place in South Africa It began around 1948 and then ended around 1990 after approx. 42 years.

4 Type of Change Directed Change: One culture changes another culture through dominance and therefore their defeat changes one aspect or entire culture. The whites of South Africa took over all aspects of the black and coloured populations lives.
