The Union of South Africa was formed on 31 May 1910 upon the alliance of colonial rulers from the colonial powers. The Republic of South Africa was established upon independence from colonial rule on 11 December 1931.
However, the Republic as it exists with the current borders was established after the end of apartheid and upon the election of the first democratic government in 1994.
