Peta Lesotho

Petikan Ai:

Lesotho is entirely within South Africa because its leader, King Moshoeshoe I, strategically sought British protection in the 1860s against Boer expansion. This creating Basutoland as a British protectorate. Preventing its absorption inti the Union of South Africa formed later, and maintaining its distinct identity and independence. Though it remained landlocked by the surrounding territories that became South Africa. 

Apa atau siapa yang digelar Boer?

The Boers are the Dutch and Huguenot colonizers of South Africa.

Petikan Ai:

They were called Boers because the word 'Boer' means farmer in Dutch and Afrikaans. The latter is the language of the settlers who originated from Dutch, German, and French Huguenot backgrounds in South Africa.
