The Republic of KwaXhosa is a successor state to South Africa, primarily populated by the Xhosa people. The nation was founded after the unification of the self-governing homelands of Transkei and Ciskei in 1988. Much of KwaXhosa's history has been marred by fighting with neighboring Dominion of South Africa
History[]
Shortly after Doomsday, South Africa succumbed to infighting between the various races and factions after the central government collapse. While areas directly under the apartheid governance collapsed, the bantustans were able to establish order within their borders. By stopping chaos spreading refugees from entering the country, Transkei and Ciskei were able to maintain law and order. As time went on these two fledgling nations drew closer together. Their common race and tongue allowed them to build a friendly relationship and in 1988, the bantustans united into the Republic of KwaXhosa.
Shortly after its formation, KwaXhosa found itself at odds with the DSA. KwaXhosa disputed their eastern border with the Anglo-African state and over the years fought several borders wars with them. Relations continued to sour due to the rough treatment shown sympathetic ethnic Xhosans in Port Elizabeth. The continous fighting with the DSA led to an increasing anti-white faction to control the KwaXhosa government, despite the efforts of more moderates Xhosans. In 1994, the democratic government of KwaXhosa was ovethrown in a military coup.
In 2006, during the ANZC/SAC joint occupation of Republic of the Cape, the DSA took the opportunity to launch a full invasion of KwXhosa and attack the northern Orange Free State. KwaXhosa's army was routed by the DSA and the Dominion Flag was raised in Bisho. The Orange Free State, however, resisted.
KwaXhosa now found itself occupied by a foreign power. Insurgencies and underground movements sprang up. The DSA eventually made peace with the Orange Free State and in 2009 ended its occupation of KwaXhosa. This was due both to the intense insurgency against the DSA and pressure from the League of Nations and the New Union of South Africa. A new democratic government was established following the pull out by Dominion forces. It was this government that agreed to pay 5% of their GDP as tribute to the DSA, reduce and limit the size of their armed forces and become a member of the African Economic Community.
Anti-DSA insurgents, however, continue to operate inside KwaXhosa, attacking targets inside the country and in the DSA. To aide in fighting these insurgents, KwXhosa and the DSA have both agreed to allow peacekeepers from the Azanian League to enter KwaXhosa and help destroy the insurgent bases.
