Wordltvradio's Online tuner - Country/State: South Africa

European trade. Apartheid. Nelson Mandela. South Africa’s “recent” past over the last 400 years contains more regime change, tragedy, and triumph than one can imagine. Dutch settlers gave way to the British after diamonds and gold were discovered in the country. A prolonged conflict between the two powers, resulting in the Boer War (1899 to 1902), left the British in control. Eventually, this led to joint rule between the British and the Dutch that had settled there (Afrikaners), but in 1948, a nationalist party was installed that instituted a policy of apartheid. The “separate development of the races” subjugated the black South African majority to the ruling white minority. Apartheid had devastating consequences for native South Africans, but Nelson Mandela and his African National Congress brought an end to apartheid in 1994. While the wake of the apartheid system has left South Africa with tremendous challenges, the country’s setting, people, and culture tell a story that draws more visitors than the any other part of sub-Saharan Africa. Wildlife unlike anywhere else in the world live in the country, and expeditions to view these animals represent a huge tourist industry. Cities like Johannesburg and Capetown are centers of industry and commerce, and mountains, deserts, and subtropical coastlines keep those that live there within a few miles of untouched nature.
