During the Boer War (1899-1902), which pitted British forces against the two Boer republics in South Africa, the Boers initially achieved several victories but ultimately faced overwhelming British military strength. The British employed scorched earth tactics and established concentration camps, leading to significant Boer civilian suffering and loss of life. By the end of the war, the Boers were forced to surrender, leading to the eventual incorporation of the Boer republics into the British Empire, albeit with promises of self-governance in the future. The war had lasting effects on South African society and set the stage for future conflicts and tensions in the region.
