| Summary/Abstract |
AT FIRST SIGHT, Russia and South Africa are located so far from each other and are so different from each other, and yet they have much in common, including their immense, boundless spaces, a rich cultural diversity of different regions, and the thorny historical paths. What we know today as the Republic of South Africa, at different times included, among others, the Cape Colony (first Dutch, and then British), the Orange Free State and Transvaal Boer republics (established by descendants of Dutch immigrants calling themselves Afrikaners), as well as the Zulu Kingdom.
