How did the nationalist government use the myth of ''race''to justify apartheid?

The nationalist government in South Africa used the myth of "race" to justify apartheid by promoting the belief that different racial groups possessed distinct characteristics, capabilities, and rights. They argued that these differences warranted the segregation of society, with the white minority claiming superiority over the non-white majority. This pseudo-scientific rationale was embedded in laws and policies that institutionalized racial discrimination, asserting that apartheid was necessary for the preservation of order and the protection of "white civilization." By framing racial segregation as a natural and beneficial system, the government sought to legitimize its oppressive practices both domestically and internationally.
