 Modimo mo Bokereseteng 
Pele ga go goroga ga bakoloniale ba Yuropa, merafe e e farologaneng e e buang Se-Bantu kwa Borwa jwa Afrika e ne e na le ditumelo le ka fa ba dirang dilo ka teng mo go tsa semoya. Kgopolo ya sebopiwa se se kwa godimo, se gantsi se bidiwang "Modimo" kgotsa maina a a tshwanang mo dipuong tse di farologaneng tsa Bantu, e ne e le botlhokwa mo dithulaganyong tseno tsa ditumelo. Setshedi se se kwa godimo se ne se bonwa e le mmopi wa lobopo le motswedi wa botshelo. 

Ka go tla ga bokoloniale jwa Yuropa mo lekgolong la bo 19 le la bo 20 la dingwaga, go ne ga nna le tlhotlheletso e kgolo mo dithulaganyong tsa ditumelo tsa batho ba naga eo. Barongwa ba ne ba nna le seabe mo go tliseng Bokeresete mo kgaolong eno, mme seno sa dira gore go aname ditlhotlheletso tsa bodumedi jwa Bophirima. Le fa go ntse jalo, merafe e le mentsi ya Afrika e ne ya kopanya ditumelo tsa yone tsa setso le Bokeresete, mme seno sa felela ka gore go nne le mefuta ya kobamelo e e kopaneng. 

Lefoko "Modimo" le ne la tswelela mme la tlwaela go nna mmogo le Bokeresete mo mabakeng a le mantsi. Baagi bangwe ba ne ba kopanya mekgwa ya setso le dikarolo tsa Bokeresete, ba tlhama thulaganyo ya tumelo e e kopaneng e e neng e akaretsa dikarolo tsa mafatshe ka bobedi. Go kopanya dilo tseno go ne ga dira gore go bolokwe boitshupo jwa setso le jwa semoya fa gape go ne go akarediwa ditlhotlheletso tse disha tsa bodumedi.

Batho ba le bantsi kwa Borwa jwa Aforika ba tswelela go bona bokao le boitshupo jwa setso mo ditumelong tsa bone tsa setso, tse di akaretsang go tlotla setshedi se se kwa godimo.
