Apartheid. Supported by several laws which the British placed on the books after fusing three separate areas into the Union of South Africa after the Boer War. When the Republic of South Africa left the British Commonwealth in 1948, they merely continued those practices established by the British.
This included the establishment of different areas to ensure separation of various tribes which had hated each other for centuries before the arrival of either Dutch or English settlers.
So deadly was the result of those tribal wars that the first Dutch settlers arriving at Table Bay outside Capetown marched hundreds of miles into the interior to the outskirts of what is now Pretoria before they ever say a person of another skin color. That march is called the "Vortrek" (Great March) and the day they met that native person was known as Vortreker Day on the South African calendar.
Run all this past your teacher and help to educate someone in the process.
