Answer:

Nelson Mandela was the president of South Africa from 1994-1999. He was the first black president of South Africa, and the first president to be elected in a fully representative election.[1]

Nelson Mandela's government focused on destroying the Apartheid government in the country, which had focused on racial segregation enforced by the law.[2]

In school, Mandela studied law and became one of South Africa’s first black lawyers.[3]

In the 1950s, he was elected leader of the youth wing of the African National Congress (ANC) liberation movement.[4]

When the government prohibited the ANC for racial reasons, Mandela organized a secret military movement. He had previously been involved in peaceful protests but when they were met with violence from the government he went on to support an armed movement.[5]

Mandela was imprisoned from 1962-1990 for treason and conspiracy against the government. He was sentenced to life in prison, but was released early when the ANC became legal again.[6]

While he was in prison, Mandela was a symbol to rally behind for the oppressed in South Africa who were fighting for rights.[7]

Mandela is considered the father of Modern South Africa. He was instrumental in tearing down the oppressive government and installing democracy.[8]
