In 1836, thousands of Boers packed everything they owned into ox wagons places to live in the north. This big adventure is known as the Great Trek. The biggest problem of the Great Trek was that the new places the Boers wanted to settle were not empty of people; they belonged to African tribes like the Basotho, the Ndebele, the Swazi and the Zulu]]> 2017-11-28 18:56:01 UTC https://padlet.com/maja_louise_soerensen3/ceivk8c8s85b/wish/211098799 Shaka and the Zulu Kingdom maja_louise_soerensen3 https://padlet.com/maja_louise_soerensen3/ceivk8c8s85b/wish/211099344 Shaka was a big man who had one of the biggest army’s in Africa.

The Khoi were cattle herders and the Sand were hunter-gatheres. They kept away from each other. The San painted stories about themselves on cave walls. 
Many pictures show how important it was to dance. Dancing made The Khoi or a San tribe feel like a family. Today, only a few of the San have survived. They live in the Kalahari Desert. All the Khoi have died. ]]> 2017-11-28 18:57:19 UTC https://padlet.com/maja_louise_soerensen3/ceivk8c8s85b/wish/211099615 The Arrival of the first Europeans maja_louise_soerensen3 https://padlet.com/maja_louise_soerensen3/ceivk8c8s85b/wish/211099935 In 1487 was the first time the Portuguese saw the land. The Explore ship was called Bartholomew Diaz. Only 12 years later Vasco da Gama did the same, but they didn´t stay. 
First in 1652 the first Dutch settlers arrived. They were looking for a place to rest and get supplies for the long journey to Asia. 
The Holland government sent the commander Jan van Riebeek to build a supply station in Table Bay at the foot of Table Mountain. 
Year by year the station grew into a Colony. The Farmers liked to call themselves Boers. 
The original people were lucky if they were taking as slave but if they were unlucky the would be killed. There were even rewards for killing black people and The Khoi and the san. 
In 1795 the English took over the colony. The Dutch was really angry also because they made new laws, and in 1833 they decided to abolish slavery. 
The Dutch Boers didn't like what the English did and didn't want to be ruled by them. In 1836 most of the Boers left the coast and started building their own republics north of the cape colony. 
The Cape colony continued to grow after the Boers had left, thousands of farmers was invited from England to come. 
With all the wars England fought against the Xhosa tribes in the east, continued the English and Boer colonies to take rest of the land in South Africa. ]]> 2017-11-28 18:57:48 UTC https://padlet.com/maja_louise_soerensen3/ceivk8c8s85b/wish/211099935 One Country - Many faces maja_louise_soerensen3 https://padlet.com/maja_louise_soerensen3/ceivk8c8s85b/wish/211100459 the south africans ere the khoi and the san. the khoi were cattle herders. the san were hunter-gatherers. both lived in the country long before any other people came.the next group of people who came to south africa were the africans. they came from central africa 2,000 years ago. and they settled down as farmers in big villagers. there are mor than ten different groups of africans in south africa. each group has its own language. the biggest group is the zulu. there are two groups  of white south africans, the Boers and the English. the boers came from Holland in 1652. the boers also call themselves afrikaners. the English arrived in 1795, they sent a big army to take the land from the boers. the Indians came in the 19th century from india to work on the sugar farms. the coloreds are the group of people who back in time had black and white parnts.]]> 2017-11-28 18:58:29 UTC https://padlet.com/maja_louise_soerensen3/ceivk8c8s85b/wish/211100459 Nelson Mandela maja_louise_soerensen3 https://padlet.com/maja_louise_soerensen3/ceivk8c8s85b/wish/211108841 2017-11-28 19:10:24 UTC https://padlet.com/maja_louise_soerensen3/ceivk8c8s85b/wish/211108841 Children in the Streets maja_louise_soerensen3 https://padlet.com/maja_louise_soerensen3/ceivk8c8s85b/wish/217444138 homeless children.

He maybe wants to forget what he has been though, and he’s parents. I think he have experience much, and he just want to lay it behind him.

He wants to help but still keep the baby. Tsotsi want to look cool but inside he is kind inside. He only wants the best.]]> 2018-01-08 14:46:59 UTC https://padlet.com/maja_louise_soerensen3/ceivk8c8s85b/wish/219365921 Tsotsi After the movie... maja_louise_soerensen3 https://padlet.com/maja_louise_soerensen3/ceivk8c8s85b/wish/220094815 Tsotsi obviously comes to jail, after he gave the baby to his original family. I would think that he regrets what he has done. He maybe will be in jail for a long time. 

When he comes out of jail, I see several possibilities: 1 he is going to be criminal again, and live in the Township again.2 he is going to live differently, and not live in the Township but get a home and a job, but also get his own family.  3 it’s a bit sad, but it could happen, he will take his own life because he could not resist the pressure. 4 he could also move to a different country and start over or just move to a different city.
