Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Transvaal Crisis I Am offering this reprint of the real grievances of the Uitlanders to the public because, though the grievances remain substantially the same as they were eighteen months ago, the public interest in them has enormously increased, and I find that very many people who did not care to read an article on them in February 1898 are now extremely anxious to study the question and find out ´what it is all about.´ For those who have not carefully considered the subject it may be useful to bear the following facts in mind. The portion of South Africa comprised in the British sphere of influence - that is to say, the territory in which England would not tolerate the interference of any foreign Power, and would fight to the death before any such interference could take place - is divided into five great provinces: 1. Natal. 2. The Transvaal. 3. The Orange Free State. 4. The Cape Colony. 5. Rhodesia. These five divisions comprise within their boundaries 1,159,237 square miles, or an area equal to the total extent of France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Austria, and Hungary, and this vast territory has at present an extremely scanty population.
