Significant people, places, and events, as well as future challenges are featured. South Africa's population lives among and within semi-arid deserts, elevated grasslands, steep mountains, fertile farmland, coastal cities, and more. From mining to agriculture, learn about South Africa's resources and landscapes, its colonial history and struggle to build an equitable society, and the daily life and diverse culture of South Africans today.
