Apartheid is a political party of racial segregation. in the afrikaans, it means, apartheid separate whites from non whites, it's also segregated the blacks from the coloreds. all things such as jobs, schools, railway stations, beaches, workbenches, public toilets and even parliament. apartheid also prevented blacks from living in white areas. this brought about the hatred "pass laws". these laws are required any non white to carry a pass on him or her. unless it was stamped on there pass, they were not allowed to stay in the white area for more than 72 hours. Despite the fact that whites only make up just over 14% of the population, they own 86.3% of the land however, it must be said that the Afrikaaners are entitled to the orange free state and transvaal as they were first to use it after the great trek of 1836.
