What were the first Boers war?

Answer:After establishment of the two Boer Republics, gold was discovered in Transvaal and that was the motivation for the British to occupy the Boer Republics. Resulting in the first defeat for the British Empire ever, in the first Anglo Boer War, where a hand full of Boer civil soldiers, won the war against the mighty British Empire. This was a humiliation for Queen Victoria that she could not except. In 1899 the British tried again to occupy the Boer Republics and again the Boers declared war, a war that lasted for three years. If it was not for the British savage concentration camps where 2400 Boer children and 3000 Boer woman were killed in the most savage ways, like fine pieces of glass in their food, the outcome of the war would be in favour of the Boers.Watch this BBC series on YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0i-hy_0VWZ8


What actually happened during the second Anglo boer war?

The Second Anglo-Boer War (1899-1902) was fought between the British Empire and two Boer republics: the South African Republic (Transvaal) and the Orange Free State. The conflict arose from tensions over British imperialism, Boer independence, and control of gold resources. Despite initial Boer successes, the British ultimately adopted a scorched earth policy and utilized concentration camps, leading to a protracted and brutal war. The war ended with the Treaty of Vereeniging in 1902, solidifying British control over the Boer territories, which would later unite as the Union of South Africa in 1910.
