  National Party (South Africa) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
As the homelands were seen by the apartheid regime as embryonic independent nations, all fl South Africans were registered as citizens of the homelands, not of the nation as a whole, and were expected to exercise their political rights only in the homelands.
In a move unrecognized by the rest of the world, the former German colony of South West Africa (now Namibia), which South Africa had occupied in World War I, was effectively incorporated into South Africa as a fifth province, with seven members elected to represent it in the South African Parliament.
Another goal was achieved in 1960, when the white population voted to sever South Africa's ties with the British Monarchy and establish a republic, which led to South Africa's withdrawal from the Commonwealth.

South Africa (see map) is a country blessed with an abundance of natural resources including fertile farmlands and unique mineral resources.
South Africa was colonized by the English and Dutch in the seventeenth century.
In 1951, the Bantu Authorities Act established a basis for ethnic government in African reserves, known as ``homelands.'' These homelands were independent states to which each African was assigned by the government according to the record of origin (which was frequently inaccurate).

Hence a new South African naval ensign was approved by the Chief of the South African National Defence Force on 29 September 1994.
This ensign was approved on 31 May 1951 but HH Smith (1993) reports that it appears not to have found favour in naval circles and as such it was never flown.
Although the Chief of the Navy stated that this flag was never used, it is referred to in an article by Capt. MF Stern on the flags of South Africa published in the spring 1963 issue of The Flag Bulletin that the Minister of Defence did indeed fly this ensign in late 1951.
