After gaining independence in 1910, control over South Africa was primarily claimed by the Union of South Africa's white minority government, which was dominated by the Afrikaner and British communities. The Union was established as a dominion within the British Empire, but power remained largely in the hands of white South Africans, excluding the majority black population from political representation and rights. The system of racial segregation that would later evolve into apartheid began to take shape during this period.
