After seeing the threads about South Africa ending in Civil war, genocide etc. what about the other way:
What if de Klerk, Mandela, Tutu had told the world that NO WAY the Whites and blacks could live together and pointed at the USA and the still ongoing struggle against racism.
And let them include Zimbabwe, that turned out not so good.
So, what if it was decided to divide South Africa into two parts, with Cape Town as neutral City and the territory not directly connected to Cape Town given an extraterritorial railway and street to it.
And make the mood in South Africa that they want to stay divided.
So, how does it turn out and how would South Africa look today?
