Also, according to Apartheid Propaganda, it was a way to keep the very large black population under control, and thus prevent South Africa from falling under control by the Communist Bloc. They would want South Africa, due to its mineral wealth and strategic location. But, when the Soviet Union started collapsing in 1987, that excuse was no longer valid. That was when the great hostilies towards the country for it began. Most overseas people would just associate South Africa with Apartheid. It's typical of human nature to focus on negative things. In South Africa, it was said that the two countries that picked on South Africa the most, namely the USA and Australia, were the two that had the most to hide, with racism. There is also mention of Global Apartheid. It's e.g. separate development of 1st and 3rd world countries, with the 1st world ones often getting richer from the 3rd. Some say that without Apartheid, the 1st world would have found some other excuses and methods to bring South Africa's economy down. And thus have less economic competition, and this time from an African country. (In those days, there were e.g. African countries with far worse atrocities that didn't seem to mean much to the outside world.)
