South Africa is one of the richest countries on the African Continent. Through decades it was a symbol for racism; sanctions where imposed on the grounds of and against the Apartheids Era. With the end of Apartheid at the beginning of the nineties South Africa could regain international recognition.   Thabo Mbeki took over the presidential role from Nelson Mandela, who entered into the history books as the first South African President elected in free elections. Now every South African citizen from 18 years onwards is free to vote. The National Elections take place every five years. The governmental party is the ANC – the African National Congress Parties.     Please visit:   Archaeology National Flag of South Africa Nelson Mandela Timetable Cecil John Rhodes Christiaan Barnard Oliver Tambo Frederik Willem de Klerk Mohandas Gandhi Steve Biko Miriam Makeba          South Africa Cape Town Guest Houses Accommodation Immigration White Shark Cage Diving Hotels Car Hire Property Garden Route Car Rental Camps Bay Hotel Garden Route Cape Town South Africa  South Africa  Cape Town Guesthouses  Cape Town Hotels  Cape Town  Cape Town Accommodation  Car Hire Cape Town  Cape Town Photos  South Africa Immigration  Cape Town Property  Cape Town Info  White Shark Cage Diving  Garden Route  South Africa Info  Immigration to South Africa  Car Rental South Africa   Camps Bay  Camps Bay Accommodation  Cape Town Tours & Tripps South Africa Immigration Hotel Accommodation Self-Catering Rent a Car Cape Town Camps Bay Knysna George Plettenberg Bay Photos Wildlife Cape Town Day Trips Tours and Safaris Cape Town City Tours Safari Day Trips
