With a POD sometime after WW1, how soon can South Africa declare independence from Britain, and by what means? I assume greater domination by the National Party, but that's about as far as I've got.
South Africa was de facto independent after 1910 and de jure independent from 1931. The Cape had had responsible government since the 1870s, the ZAR and OFS since the 1850s and Natal from about the 1890s.
So, I'm not too sure what you're asking here.

I'm asking for a 1961-style referendum that splits South Africa off from the Commonwealth, or some other means by which South Africa acts with a far greater degree of independence than the other dominions.
