British restrictions had been placed on the Northern expansion of the
Boers in an effort to placate the native African population who were at
this time resisting any European expansion. The Boers resisted and defied
British rule and continued their Northern expansion. The power struggle
evolved and progressed until serious hostilities eupted.
The war was caused by British greed (Transvaal goldfields),the refusal of the Boer Republics to grant immigrants citizenship,the continuous improvement of relations between the republics and Germany.The strengthening of the Boer Republics economy also threatens British supremacy and an over aggressive Lord Millner
The boers had discovered gold and diamonds in the Freestate and the Transvaal.
The English empire wanted it so they started a war.
Because they could not win, they started concentration camps where thousands of women, children as well as africans died because of malnutrition.
It was all for money.
Some of the causes of the Anglo-Boer War were the discovery of gold in Transvaal, the dynamite tax and proposed railroad construction, Boer resistance to Britain's goal of colonial control, and
the conflicting political ideologies of Imperialism and republicanism.
Hey, I'm currently doing the Scramble for Africa at AS too and I've been asked to discuss causes for the Second Boer War of 1899.

Economic value of the Transvaal where there were diamonds and gold

There was gold, the brits fought to steal it from the boers
Uitlander grievances about taxes and suppressed rights, the dynamite tax and proposed railroad construction are some of the causes of the Anglo-Boer War.
The fact that the Boers wanted freedom and a place to settle. They would never find it under British rule.
The cause was German and Austrian aggression.
Mainly killing of Austrian Prince by some serbian extremists.
The invasion of Belgium by Germany was one of the causes of World War 1.
The three underlying causes were nationalism,alliances, and more weapons.
The causes of World War 1, which began in central Europe in late June 1914, included intertwined factors, such as the conflicts and hostility of the four decades leading up to the war. militarism, alliances, imperalism, and national played major roles in the conflict as well. However, the immediate origins of the war lay in the decisions taken by statesmen and generals during the Crisis of 1914, casus belli for which was the assasination of archduke Franz Ferdinand of australia and his wife by Gavrilo Princip, an irredentist Serb
