Today, millions of Africans are chronically short of capital needed to start businesses. Less than half of the working age population is officially employed. This is because even though apartheid was officially ended in 1994 by Nelson Mandela, they are still being greatly affected by it today and it hasn’t completely left South Africa like it was supposed to.

Zulu people are an ethnic group that did and still have the largest population in South Africa with a population of 10-12 million people. The Xhosa people are an ethnic group of South Africa living mainly in the eastern and western cape of Africa, but today they are found in the southern and central-southern parts of the country. British people went to South Africa to fight the Boer war. The British forces thought that the war would be won easily, but they were wrong. They underestimated the Boers and suffered a number of significant defeats. Indian slaves from the Dutch colonies had been introduced into the Cape area of South Africa by the Dutch settlers in 1654. By the end of 1847, following annexation by Britain of the former Boer republic of Natalia, nearly all the Boers had left their former republic, which the British renamed Natal.  This image is of the Zulu people in the 1800’s.
