The Netherlands set up the first colony in South Africa, but the territories were seized by Britain in 1795. The emerging conflicts between the British and the Boers (Dutch descendants) led to two Anglo-Boer wars. The Union of South Africa was founded in 1910. The governments from 1948 legalized and extended the existing system of racial segregation and denial of rights known as the system of apartheid which existed until the 1990's.
