To Navigato, as SA does not have hug tribal problems, it is difficult for me to say, but it has always been my opinion that many of the problems come from these weird borders (take a look at Namibia for instance)

Hypnox.

my father's family came herefrom France in 1694. My family on that sdie them mixed with Dutch and German colonists. So which country should I go to? I love this country. I never discrimintated against anyone. I work hard to make this country better. I was born here, as so many of my family before me, generations, why should I go?

And yout knwledge of SA history is a bit sad. African tribes in Sa did not migrate, that is the Bushmen. So that theory gone (you saiing it is a fact does not make it so) The Zulu's and Tswana's and all the rest are agarian, so the stteld, build towns, andstayed in one place. Shake came inland, and destryed almostall the tribes, in what is commonly known as the Mzilikaze. So when the Voortrekkers (white settlers) cameinto what is the norhtehrn provinces, there were not many people left after this genocide.

That is the hsistory, still taught oday, of SA.
