About the Book

Seminar paper from the year 2016 in the subject History - Africa, grade: 2,0, language: English, abstract: In the paper the author wants to investigate the events of the Herero and Nama revolts of 1904 which lead to the outbreak of a colonial war, that lastet at least until 1907.

According to this, the people in South-West Africa were treated until it amounted to what is referred to as the "first genocide of the 20th century". Under Reich Chancellor Bismarck, the aim of the German Empire regarding its colonies was at first only to constitute a protecting power. This approach was based on the expectation, that the clamorous colonial lobby, which was constituted as the "German Colonial Society" in 1887, would stand up for the development of the new acquired regions. For this reason, the economic development and parts of the administration was transferred on terrain-, charter- and commercial companies, that were also left with establishing an infrastructure there. This was problematic since the interest of the German settlers in Africa was more on their personal profits than on a coordinated development of the "new" territory. Without continuous investm
