The Boers also surrendered unconditionally to the ill trained terrorist organisation, the ANC. They did this without firing a single shot and then turned on one another during the Truth and Reconciliation commission, after they bowed down to the terrorists.
No one was looking for slaves that would be ridiculous. Slaves just were needed one hundred years later for the Americas plantations, who even in Brazil belong to the Dutch.
All powers to my opinion were at one point tyrants to natives of lands they did not own. I understand the gist of creating colonies and conquering line. But if you look at the history of Aotearoa, Tahiti, Australia, and more I noticed how similarly the British always tried to suppress the native language, push out the natives, and take over land they had no business in. I can see that when you’re in the mindset of greed. You are willing to do anything to achieve what you want. None the less no hard feelings no of course but that fascinates, sickens to a point, and always leaves me curious on what drove then to treat natives of other lands as less than human. Great video…
Correction: It was never British policy to build a railroad from Cairo to Capetown, as that rail line would have zero function. It was easier amd cheaper to trade by sea. The "Capetown to Cairo" line was just something said by Cecil Rhodes.
I watched this whole thing, but because I was so intrigued by it, I forgot to take notes...ow I gotta re-watch it (This is the best explanation of the US history by far)
Great video! I know it's 5 years old but as a South African I just wanna mention that it's pronounced 'boo-rs' not 'boas'. Like say the word boo as in trying to scare someone and then just end it with 'rs' like you would with the word soldiers. Definitely not boas like boa constrictor. Also a common mispronunciation is boars like the pig. The word boorish stems from the boers, my people! So it's pronounced very similarly. Anyway it's such a small part of the video but as boer myself, it's a pet peeve. Great video! I'm moving to the UK for work in a few weeks and came to this video to get more clued up on British history!
The boer war actually divided Canada along linguistic lines since the French Canadians had no interest in financing another war for the British empire especially once they had learned of the similar political condition the Boers were in. Economic, political and linguistic domination by another colonial power. Boer nationalism actually forced the British empire to recruit soldiers from everywhere in the colonies and English Canadians jingoists would regularity chide and racially slur French Canadians in media and parliamentary debates for blocking military aid. Wilfrid Laurier, Canada’s first French speaking prime minister ended up financing Canada’s participation much to the dismay of French Canadians which eventually fed into the anti-conscription movements of ww1 and ww2 knowing full well they would be cannon fodder for the British and the English Canadian military elite. This eventually led to Quebec independence movements in the 60s 70s 80s and 90s. 100 years later, the Boer wars still had repercussions across the planet.
It was great, I enjoyed it. I am really interested in history, especially the history of any country. I will be happy if you support the history of my country, Iran.😊

*Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa is the first Portuguese leader to suggest an apology for his country’s key role in the transatlantic slave trade it started in 1441.*
Asshur was their ancestor. The historical record shows that everyone spread out from Mesopotamia. Ancient history is essential for everyone to know, especially the sixteen original civilizations… from the sixteen grandsons of Noah. It’s necessary to learn ancient history before trying to learn science. 1. The first inhabitants of Italy (K) Tubal 2. Thracians (L) Tiras 3. Siberians (N) Meshek 4. East Asians (O) Magog 5. Medes (PQ) Madai 6.. Western Europeans (R) Gomer 7. Mediterranean Greek sea people (T) Javan 8. Hebrews and Arabic (IJ) Arphaxad 9. Elamites (H) Elam 10. Assyrians (G) Asshur 11. Arameans (F1) Aram 12. Lydians (F2) Lud 13. Cushites (AB, C) Cush 14. Egyptians (E3) Mitzrayim 15. Canaanites (E2, D) Canaan 16. Original North African Phoenicians (E1) Phut The D haplogroup descendants of Canaan migrated east through Tibet all the way to Japan. The C haplogroup descendants of Nimrod migrated to South Asia, the Pacific, Mongolia, Australia and all the way to the Americas along with Q haplogroup descendants of Madai ancestor of the Medes. The A maternal mtDNA haplogroup belonging to the N lineage accompanied the Q paternal haplogroup in the Americas. The C&D maternal haplogroups belong to the M lineage. The B maternal haplogroup seems to have crossed the Pacific Ocean. The Mediterranean paternal R1b and the maternal X2a also found in Galilee represent an Atlantic crossing of the Phoenicians in the days of King Solomon considering also the Mediterranean paternal haplogroups of T, G, I1, I2, J1, J2, E and B in addition to the R1b in Native American Populations. J1 and J2 is Arabs and Jews. (I1 is Dan, I2 is Asher) Of course there is the Cohen modal haplotype of J1 P58 which identifies the IJ lineage of Hebrews and Arabs that are descended from Arphaxad. J2 M172 is the descendants of the House of David and Solomon.
Deep...cannot speak of the history of the country for ten minutes without mentioning crimes...to think that people wonder if the slave trade happened when we read of the record of Alexander Falconbridge.
Tomorrow I‘m writing my history finals and bc I‘m german I have to learn about Schleswig and Holstein. (Also, yes, you pronounced it wrong but that‘s ok) This was the only video I found about that topic. Thanks
