Boudicca was married to Prasutagus, ruler of the Iceni people of East Anglia. When the Romans conquered southern England in AD 43, they allowed Prasutagus to continue to rule. However, when Prasutagus died the Romans decided to rule the Iceni directly and confiscated the property of the leading tribesmen. They are also said to have stripped and flogged Boudicca and raped her daughters. These actions exacerbated widespread resentment at Roman rule.

In 60 or 61 AD, while the Roman governor Gaius Suetonius Paullinus was leading a campaign in North Wales, the Iceni rebelled. Members of other tribes joined them.

Boudicca's warriors successfully defeated the Roman Ninth Legion and destroyed the capital of Roman Britain, then at Colchester. They went on to destroy London and Verulamium (St Albans). Thousands were killed. Finally, Boudicca was defeated by a Roman army led by Paulinus. Many Britons were killed and Boudicca is thought to have poisoned herself to avoid capture. The site of the battle, and of Boudicca's death, are unknown.

To what extent has south africa overcome the legacy of apartheid
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

has become fashionable in some circles to run down post-apartheid South Africa. This occurs not only in those sections of the media that believe African success is a contradiction in terms but also, more surprisingly, in quarters that strongly supported our transition to democracy and drive towards social justice. The Guardian's columns have not been exempt from criticism: Chris McGreal delivered some intemperate parting shots when he finished a 12-year stint as a southern Africa correspondent. We take such criticism seriously, but also find it inadequately based in fact and reality.

Take HIV/Aids. The latest survey by South Africa's human sciences research council confirms a UNAids report that shows falling levels of HIV infection among young South Africans. Prevention messages about condom use, abstinence and faithfulness are being taken to heart, especially by young people.
