8. 1910 – The Union of South Africa is born under the British Commonwealth, ending its status as a colony of Great Britain. The South Africa Act is also passed which takes away all political rights of Africans.

However, the white minority was determined at that time not to give away any of the power they had held since Colonial times.

Big Question: How did the white South Africans keep the black South Africans from becoming Educated? Wealthy? United?
