How much do you know?
This isn't a challenge or anything like that. What it is, is fun for me... and you I guess The question.... What do you know about South Africa? (I live there or here... Depends where you live) Don't give me statistics and all that though I want some silly things you might know and don't go using that Google machine.

Re: How much do you know?
This really is fun Skiv and zalo are the closest to right. Skiv: We didn't invent apartheid, everyone had racism... We just called it something else. zalo: Your close-ish. It's "respect" which is a destroyed term, meaning you say it but it doesn't mean much. Although I'm not realy sure of it's actual meaning but respect is it's backbone... wait, your damn close. I just remembered my one LO class... And white people are a minority...

Re: How much do you know?
It was a big center for British colonists and there are still a lot of British people there. Only their accents have mutated and they sound like a cross-breed of a person from New Jersey and a person from Australia.

Re: How much do you know?
Daman:You honestly heard wrong,I don't mean to say you got unreliable sources maybe if you live in the Western Cape yeah but here were like the Asians in the USA in the rest of the country.
3POK_PHALE: It's just for fun and curiosity.
As for the British thing, The Dutch and English came here. Firstly the Dutch they became Afrikaners or Boere then the British tried taking over and we whipped em' back to England. Then we proceeded to obliterate the local population cause they stabbed us in the back.
