Trains from different rail lines could use each other’s tracks
It makes me wonder about which groups in the world have influence and which ones do not, in Russia anywhere from 12-20 million Orthodox Christians were killed by the Soviet regime. The world is largely unaware of this, yet everyone knows about the holocaust. Why is this? Is it because Jews have a disproportionate representation, even though they are only 1.4% of the nations population? The truth is shocking.. Yes they do. http://i.stack.imgur.com/PPhcg.jpg
Apartheid is specifically associated with South Africa - when there is a question mentioning this word, it's very likely that it's connected to this country. South Africa is also the correct answer here. Apartheid ended in 1994 and 1997 is the year when the new Constitution came into power.

A bit of added detail:
I'd like to explain more about one item in the list above -- the policy of "brinkmanship" during the Eisenhower administration.
John Foster Dulles was Secretary of State under US President Dwight Eisenhower. Dulles held the office from 1953 to 1959. He wanted a change from what had been the "containment policy" which the US had followed during the Truman Administration, as recommended then by American diplomat George F. Kennan. Dulles felt the containment approach put the United States in a weak position, because it only was reactive, trying to contain communist aggression when it occurred.
Dulles sought to push America's policy in a more active direction; some have labeled his approach "brinkmanship." In an article in <em>LIFE </em>magazine in 1956, Dulles said, "The ability to get to the verge without getting into the war is the necessary art." He wasn't afraid to threaten massive retaliation against communist enemy countries as a way of intimidating them.
Because two of them were shaping the image of the Catholic church and affected the everyday's life of people. Also, they influenced the theology of the church a lot.
Explanation:
- St. Augustine is one of the foremost theologians and philosophers in the Christian West. His works exerted a great influence on the development of Roman Catholic and later Protestant theology.
- Although he was a Manichean in his youth, he later fought as a Christian bishop against the Manicheans. He was proclaimed a saint in the Christian West, which was later accepted in the Christian East, but with certain fences relating to some of Augustine's theological views, which proved controversial from the point of view of Christian orthodoxy.
- Thomas Aquinas, is one of the greatest theologians and philosophers of the Middle Ages. His teachings are still very popular today.
