What changed after the 1994 elections in south Africa?

Please allow me to make sure I understood your question. You want to know if 1994 was the year South Africa held its first elections? Then I must let you know that no, it is not true that South Africa held its first elections in 1994. S.A. has been having elections since the boars took control of the area. Pietr Bhota and D.W. De Klerk were the last two Boars president elected. What makes 1994 a historical time, is that in 1994 for the first time Blacks were allowed to vote and to be candidates for the presidency. This becomes all the most amazing because that year Nelson Mandela was elected.
