Mid To Late 20th CenturySouth Africa
During much of the 20th century it was dominated by a white minority which controlled the government.
By 1910, South Africa gained its freedom from Britain. Whites made up less than 20% of the population but
controlled most of the fertile land and mineral resources.
By 1912, the African National Congress was set up to oppose white domination.
