Why are there white people in South Africa?

The reasons why there are whites in South Africa can be summarized as follows:

1. South Africa was once a colony of European powers, so descendants of European powers also came to South Africa. These descendants include whites, blacks and hybrids.

2. White people in South Africa are mainly Dutch, British and immigrants from other European countries. Their arrival in South Africa can be traced back to17th century.

3. Under the apartheid system in South Africa, whites are dominant in politics, economy and society, while blacks and other ethnic groups are at a disadvantage. This system was not abolished until the 1990s.

4. Although blacks in South Africa are no longer subjected to racial discrimination, due to historical problems, there is still a certain gap in social, economic and educational levels in South Africa, which leads to the gap between the rich and the poor between whites and blacks.
