Why did the Namibia genocide end?

The Namibia genocide, primarily targeting the Herero and Nama peoples by German colonial forces between 1904 and 1908, effectively ended due to a combination of military defeat and international scrutiny. The Herero and Nama resistance was ultimately suppressed, leading to the widespread extermination and displacement of these populations. Additionally, growing awareness and criticism of Germany's brutal tactics—along with shifting political and military priorities—contributed to the cessation of hostilities. By 1908, the focus of German colonial efforts shifted, marking the end of the genocidal campaign.
