Answer (2)

Apartheid was a system of racial segregation in South Africa from 1948 until the early 1990s, categorizing citizens by race and enforcing societal separation. It resulted in significant legal, social, and economic disparities that marginalized non-white populations. The movement against apartheid, particularly led by Nelson Mandela, eventually abolished the system and established democratic rule in 1994.
