Namibia is a make-believe "Nation." It was first a German Imperial Administrative Unit, captured by the South Africans in World War I, who administered it for many years, while respecting the diverse nations which populate it. Unfortunately, they were pressured to leave it to the world of make-believe some years ago.

The Whites (primarily descended from the original German settlers and some South Africans, who moved in after the change in Administrations, after World War I, before the fantasy seekers were allowed to take over), are not the only victims of the pretense that it is one Nation. There are many small tribal peoples, who are totally at the mercy of those who wield the majority vote. It is an ugly picture; but it is the picture of "Democracy" in the Third World.

I understand that Namibia has, or at least once had, the highest percentage of White population in all sub-Saharan Africa, higher than even South Africa, and at its peak over 30% White. The reason, as some have pointed out here, is that the country is ill-suited for traditional agriculture and could support a very low absolute number of indigenous Africans. Hence, the White immigration into the country made a high percentage-of-composition difference.
