Feedback

1899 is the commonly cited start year of the war.

Resource access was a key driver for Britain’s move into the region.

Uitlanders referred to foreign workers and settlers in the Transvaal and Free State goldfields.

The Jameson Raid heightened distrust between the UK and Boer republics.

Early fighting featured formal battles and sieges rather than guerrilla fighting yet.

The policy aimed to deprive Boer commandos of food and shelter.

Camps were used to restrict Boers' access to resources and support.

Disease and hunger caused severe mortality in camps.

The main conflict spanned 1899–1902; some later events followed.
