Why and How did the South African apartheid form?
The South African Nationalist government of 1948 passed the first laws about Apartheid. This affected every level of society. The nationalists (read Nazi if you wish) wanted to protect white jobs, so many jobs were reserved for whites only. Everybody was investigated for blacks in their family. People were officially designated white, black or 'coloured'. A Black in the family as many as 4 generations back would make you 'coloured' and could prevent you from many jobs.

What is the difference between the Holocaust and apartheid?
I'm also wondering difference of those two cuz I met one holocaust survivor today and she said holocaust and the shoah is kinda different
-------------------------------------
Shoah is the word that the Jews use for the attempted extermination of the Jews by the Nazis. This word is used in preference to the word Holocaust for three main reasons:
The Holocaust is used by many to describe all of the victims of Nazi extermination policies.
The definition of Holocaust implies sacrifice and many Jews consider this inappropriate as there was no sacrifice involved.
The word (or term) Holocaust is currently being hijacked by many other people resulting in it's meaning being eliminated, for example 'Animal Holocaust or African Holocaust or 'Today's Holocaust'. Or 'motorway Holocaust' just to describe a car crash, which obviously is almost the same as the Holocaust.

How was apartheid created and dissolved in South Africa?
Apartheid began in 1948 even though racism was around for a lot longer. In 1950 there was the Population Registration Act which labeled everyone as white, black, colored, or Asian. Lass were passed t prevent marriages between groups. Eighty percent of the land was reserved for the white minority and nonwhites had to carry documents to travel outside of their designated area. Land was taken from blacks and sold at low prices to white farmers. Groups like the ANC (African National Congress) opposed the white government. Nelson Mandela was one of that group and he was imprisoned fro 1963 to 1990.
Apartheid was opposed by the United Nations. The United States and United Kingdom placed economic sanctions on South Africa. Finally whites began changing policies starting with repealing some of of these laws relating to interracial sex and marriage. F.W. de Klerk took over in 1989 and he repealed the Population Registration Act. In 1990, de Klerk released Nelson Mandela. Mandela and de Klerk worked together to write a new Constitution that went into effect in 1994.
What is the difference between the anti-apartheid movement and the civil right movement?
The anti-apartheid movement involved many countries around the world that agreed to stop trading with South Africa to persuade them to stop Aparthied, while the Civil Right movement involved only one country (the United States). This is only one reason, and I'm sure there are more, but hope this helps a little!
