How many whites are there in South Africa?

There are less than 4.5 million white people in South Africa.

South African whites are one of South African races, mainly South African whites (mainly Dutch, African whites formed by French and German immigrants) and British whites. Their languages are Afrikaans and English. According to the 20 17 census, there are less than 4.5 million white people in South Africa, accounting for about 8% of the total population.

Mandela began to reform after he took office. In fact, the white upper class in South Africa has basically left. These people, with a lot of capital and money, can naturally go to Europe and America to enjoy hot drinks. Now these 4.5 million people are basically unable to leave, basically have no money, and the main survival support is in South Africa. Once they leave, they will have nothing. So they can't leave, which is also fundamental.

History of South Africa:

1, Early History (1652 years ago): South Africa is one of the places where human beings originated, with a long history of archaeological and human fossil sites. The earliest inhabitants were the Khoisan people, and later they were conquered and assimilated by Bantu people who migrated from North Africa. South Africa is also a trade center, with connections with Muslim businessmen and European explorers along the Indian Ocean.

2. Dutch colonial period (1652-1815): The Dutch East India Company established a supply depot in Cape Town and gradually expanded its control over South Africa. Dutch immigrants are called Afrikaners. They clashed with local blacks and colored people and intermarried, forming a unique nation called Boer. The Boers later moved inland and established several Boer republics. Britain was also interested in South Africa, and occupied Cape Colony twice in 1795 and 1806.
