The "Boers" were not British, they were of Dutch heritage.
The British fought the "Boers" and the "Zulus" in South Africa.
South Africa was only formed in 1910 and there was never a war between South Africa and Britain, however the British fought wars with the Boers for control of gold and diamond and Zulus for control of Natal before South Africa was formed.
The Zulu War was caused by British Aggression. The British were attracted to the Zululand seeking trade and possible wealth there. By 1840, Natal, a British Colony had been settled on the edges of Zululand. The British wanted to incorporate the British colonies, Boer settlements and Zululand under British dominion. They felt a strong leader of the Zulus would not permit this to happen so, the British High Commissioner in South Africa picked a fight with the Zulu King, falsely assuming it would be easy to take out a nation of warriors who only had spears.

The British Army ! They themselves were also opposed by the native races ie, the Zulus, or the Baralongs, all of whom opposed them for their greed and cruelty. It is one of the shameful things about British History, they were the first to use concentration camps. 28000 Boer women and children died in the camps.
Both the British and the Dutch.
