Explanation:

    The term apartheid refers to a racial policy implemented in South Africa. According to this regime, the white minority, the only ones with voting rights, held all political and economic power in the country, while the immense black majority was left with the obligation to strictly comply with breakaway legislation.

   The policy of racial segregation was made official in 1948, with the arrival of the New National Party (NNP) to power. Apartheid did not allow blacks access to the ballot boxes and prohibited them from acquiring land in most of the country, forcing them to live in segregated residential areas, a kind of geographical confinement. Marriages and sexual relations between people of different ethnicities were also prohibited.
