The Botswana Referendum of 2024

The 2024 Botswana integration into South Africa referendum, commonly referred to as the 2024 Batswana Referendum, the Botswana referendum of 2024, or simply just the Botswana Referendum, took place on the 3rd of May 2024, days after South Africa annexed Lesotho and eSwatini, in Botswana to ask whether the country should be integrated into South Africa or not. 63.74% of the Batswana population voted for the idea of integrating into South Africa as they had closer ties with the country. On the other side, 36.26% of Batswana strictly opposed the idea because they had anti-Western views, and really hated South Africa.
