He seems to be counting earlier wars or battles in the naming of "Boer Wars". Whereas at least in the English speaking places I've lived, we refer to two, the first being 1880-81, the second being 1899-1902. Any other battles or wars use different naming rules.

Does he now? under what circumstances was Natalia(Natal) annexed by the British? what conflict was that?

Did the Boers buy land into the area before its official annexation by the British?
Please revise your education...

I might have got my dates wrong, but you said the Boer War was in 1850...

And now you say the First Boer War was in 1848. I am very confused by your dates here dude.

no probably 42' so what? it wasn't in 1880...and the facts stand...your facts don't or whoever taught you has to revise them...

Please review my point/question and I'd also request you be a little less snide, if you would. I shall do the same.

If you want to talk about earlier conflicts we certainly can, but I'd rather get some certainty on your naming methodology first
