         <description><![CDATA[<div>The Apartheid, South Africa's system of racial segregation, came to an end in the early 1990's. While the Apartheid was intact, the small white minority had more rights than the majority of the population, this being the blacks in South Africa. The blacks in South Africa were being discriminated in their everyday lives, as the aparthied included aspects such as separate facilities for blacks and whites and separate jobs as well based on your skin color. The Apartheid came to an end in 1991, once President F.W. de Klerk repealed most of the laws under the apartheid. Although the whites still had all their original rights, they were such a minute group compared to the majority of blacks. In addition, now that the blacks and the whites were equal by default, the whites no longer felt the need to stay in South Africa, causing them to migrate to other places such as Europe.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong>Forced Migration</strong>: The categories of people under the Aparthied (whites, blacks, colored, Indians) were seperated into different residential areas. For example, blacks were divided into "Homelands", which was based on one's tribal group. This relocation was forced by those ruling the Aparthied. <br><strong>Internal Migration</strong>: After the Aparthied ended, South Africans were able to go where the pleased and didn't need to live in their "<br>homelands causing them to migrate to other areas within the county, such as cities opposed to their rural homelands. <br><strong>Push Factors</strong>: Within the homelands, there was poor agricultural land to farm on. There was not only soil erosion but also overgrazing within the homeland areas. The homelands were not developed areas and served as labour reservoirs, inducing people to relocate once they could. <br><strong>Colonization</strong>: The Dutch Descendant Afrikaners and British both wanted the South African country for themselves. Eventually, The National Party (Afrikaners) gained power in South Africa and established the Aparthied in 1948, enforcing their own government that administered racial segregation policies. <br><strong>Internally Displaced Persons</strong>: Under the Aparthied laws, millions of black South Africans were moved from their original homes in South African to other areas of the county where those who ruled the Aparthied chose. Once the aparthied ended, the blacks didn't leave/ cross borders as they fled from their designated areas but dispersed within the country since there was no longer segregation and therefore no reason to relocate across borders. <br><strong>Voluntary Migration</strong>: Once the Aparthied came to an end, whites who once had more rights than blacks were no longer superior. Whites did not lose any of their rights but more their "status" of being superior. The whites were not forced to leave the county but rather decided to after being such a small group in South Africa and because they no longer were in their minds superior to blacks.&nbsp;<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. Although the government didn't physically force the white South Africans out, the Employment Equity Act, which is an example of the legislation enacted by the government to reverse this legacy of discrimination and inequality, did drive white south Africans out.&nbsp;<br>2. Farmers have emigrated to other parts of Africa (North Eastern Congo)<br>3. Others have migrated a long distance to the cities in the UK&nbsp;<br>4. Once the apartheid ended and South Africans were allowed to go where they pleased, they migrated to cities.&nbsp;<br>5. This law is unlikely to take place with the South African whites in this case because mainly all of them wanted to emigrate. But one case may be that some individuals in the family would stay behind in South Africa and continue to protest and stand up for what they believe in and risk their lives in the violent society. Which results in the rest of the family to emigrate out of South America, splitting the family.</div>]]></description>
