Desegregation the process of ending the separation of two different groups of people. The term "desegregation" is normally used with reference to race. The government of the country, religious organisations and organisations such as The United Nations, play a major role in desegregation whether good or bad. Normally the laws of a country determine whether communities can live separate from each other or whether they are able to be integrated with each other. Different groups of people tend to live close to the religious places of worship. The United Nations can force a country to allow the desegregation of different races. South Africa is a very good example. Apartheid segregated the different races in South Africa. The United Nations isolated and placed extreme sanctions on South Africa. The end result is that South Africa is now a democratic country with equal rights for all.
