Sudafrikan Federation

The **Sudafrikan Federation** is a country in southern Africa, bordered by Namibia to the north west, Rhodesia to the north, and the Kingdom of Portugal in exile to the northwest. As of 2089, it has a population of 89.827 million, and is currently under a military junta led by general Daniel van den Berg.

## History

After the UK's surrender in 1919, it was forced to hand much of it's vast colonial empire to the central powers, mainly Germany. Of those colonies ceded was the Union of South Africa, which by that point was a semi-independent dominion within the British Empire. In 1921, it, along with German South West Africa, Bechuanaland, Basutoland, Swaziland, and Southern Rhodesia were merged into the colony of German South Africa, with German diplomat Gottlieb Von Jagow serving as the first governor of the new colony. South Africa served as one of Germany's most important colonies, due to it's abundance in natural resources such as uranium and diamonds, and saw the use of slave labor in order to take advantage of said natural resources. South Africa also saw mass immigration of Europeans, mainly from Germany, Britain, And France, with the last 2 due to the syndicalist revolutions in the countries. This mass immigration increased the already pretty high white population, and many government positions were given to said white settlers.

In 1930, military officer Victor Franke became the governor of South Africa, and not much changed in the colony.

In 1933, The United States of Greater Austria fell into a long expected civil war due to the many ethnic conflicts. Because of said event, the other central powers had invaded the colonies of Austria in order to prevent any potential communist uprisings, and to seize the resources of the colonies. in 1935 after the civil war ended, the Austrian colonies were partitioned between the German Weltreich, Ottomans, and Bulgarians. Because of this seizure of Austrian colonies, the German colonies of Africa were all finally connected, and because of this, all of Germany's colonies were merged into the mega colony of German Africa, with Hermann Goering as it's governor, with South Africa being turned into a colonial district. The merger saw a massive increase of immigration to German Africa, and also saw a rise in the use of slave labor until the Weltreich banned it in 1945. In 1947, Hans-Jürgen Von Arnim succeeded Goering as governor of German Africa. In the early 1950's, a bunch of wealthy miners from South Africa had made a proposal to the Weltreich: The merger of South Africa, Namibia, and Southern Botswana into an independent, Apartheid, pro-German state. In 1955, the Weltreich accepted the proposal, and on April 27, the Apartheid state of the Sudafrikan Federation gains independence, with C.R Swart as it's first president.

After independence, a constitution was drafted, which said that presidents could only serve for 1, 6 year term, and that only white people could hold government positions. Many anti-black policies were also put into effect, most notably Bantustans, also known as "African homelands", areas of land set aside for the majority black population to live on. Sudafrika enjoyed positive relations with the central powers and the Weltreich, who supported the Sudafrikan Federation as it's key ally in Africa, after Ethiopia sided with the Ottoman Empire during the German-Ottoman split. Sudafrika also traded with the Portuguese, which had just seen it's monarchy restored along with it joining the central powers. That, along with the abundance of natural resources, had turned the Sudafrikan Federation into a rather wealthy state. Despite that, however, the majority black population had angered by the establishment of an apartheid state in the country, and clashes between pro and anti apartheid forces became all too common in the country, and would result in many deaths. Many other oppressive laws came into effect, such as seizure of land from black farmers, banning of mixed race marriages, and blocking access to certain public areas.

In 1961, just before the presidential election, Sudafrikan authorities had discovered a coup plan from members of the ANC (African National Congress). Over 100 members were arrested for treason, some of which were executed, and the rest were imprisoned on Robben Island. The election would then procede as normal, and saw Jozua Francois Naude elected with 65% of the vote. Despite being a democracy on the outside, many considered the Sudafrikan federation to be a one party state due to the power the Afrikaner National Party had. Despite the close relations with the Weltreich and Portugal, the Sudafrikan Federation was condemned by much of the global community, even including some countries of the central powers, such as Brazil and the Republic of China.

In 1964, the SAPLA (South African Peoples Liberation Army) had risen up in the northern and western parts of the country in order to free the country from Apartheid rule. A communist affiliated party, it saw much support from the International, Mainly the Soviet Union, SSA, and Libya after it's independence in 1969. The Ottoman Empire and the American Union State were also alleged to have sent support to the rebels, though this has never been confirmed. In 1965, president Francois Naude had established martial law in the country and established a curfew due to terrorist attacks becoming frequent.

In the 1967 presidential election, Abba Eden had risen to the presidency, with 52% of the vote. Starting in the late 60's, a massive decolonization wave had begun, due to massive protests and anti-colonial movements happening across the conflict. Despite the massive decolonizations of Africa, many conflicts and wars had sprung up between pro and anti socialist forces, as both the Central Powers and International fought for influence on the continent. The Sudafrikan Federation had participated in many of these conflicts in the Congo, Guinea, Kamerun, Kenya, Angola, and Mozambique. In 1976, a war had begun between Rhodesia and the Zambian Revolutionary State due to a border skirmish that happened, causing Rhodesia to invade with the plans to topple the socialist government. Sudafrika was one of Rhodesia's main supporters, along with the Weltreich and Portugal, and had sent lots of supplies to Rhodesia. Zambia was not alone in this war, as it had revived help from the international, and also allied itself with ZANU, a rebel group fighting in Rhodesia to topple the government. Despite this, Sudafrika did not directly participate in the war, although it did send a volunteer legion to help with the crisis in Zambia.

This changed, however, in 1977 of the next year, as ZANU rebels had crossed into Namibia to help the SAPLA. Due to this development, President Owen Horwood had officially declared war on Zambia and ZANU, and sent troops into Zambia. The war was brutal, and saw many deaths on both sides, but ultimately saw Rhodesia win the war, with an apartheid state established in Zambia and the revolutionary government fleeing to the Congo. Sudafrika, along with Rhodesia, helped the new, war torn government. Along with the victory in the war, Pieter Wilhelm Botha rose to the presidency in 1979, who was staunchly pro-apartheid and pro-German. Overall, around 9,700 thousand Sudafrikan soldiers died in the conflict. The next year, the final SAPLA guerrillas surrender to the military in Botswana, putting an end to the 20 year guerrilla war. By this point, the Sudafikan Federation had become a regional power, thanks in large part to it's abundance of natural resources, and had considerable influence in it's neighboring states, as well as helping prop up apartheid governments in Angola and Madagascar. Sudafrika also had one of the biggest militaries on the continent, along with Libya, the Turkish Federation, and Rhodesia.

In 1985, F. W De Klerk had become president, and had become a prime target of the Weltreich and white minority of the country, due to his anti-apartheid views. Throughout his presidency, he had started phasing out apartheid, and provided more opportunities for the black majority. He had also started to improve the lives of the population as a whole by giving more job opportunities and improving infrastructure. Not only that, but he also wanted to move Sudafrika away from the Weltreich and the Central Powers as a whole. After all these decisions, German secret intelligence started planning with the military to overthrow De Klerk. In 1990, the plan went into place, and saw De Klerk deposed and arrested, with commander Constand Viljoen taking over, establishing a military junta, and undoing much of De Klerks policies. This only increased tensions between the black and white populations, as much of De Klerks more anti apartheid policies had been undone, and replaced with a more, oppressive, military junta. Massive riots erupted in major cities in 1991, and saw many clashes between protesters and the police.

In 1993, a long expected 2nd world war erupts between the Central Powers and the International after Ukraine erupts into civil war, and the war eventually spills over into Southern Africa, which see's the Sudafrikan Federation, Rhodesia, and the rest of apartheid Southern Africa fight against the Congo, Katanga, and Malawi, along with forces from other International forces from other countries such as Britain, Libya, and the Soviet Union. While at first Sudafrika and its allies are able to hold off the International Powers, eventually the tide turns against the Central Powers across the world and in Southern Africa. Since Germany needed all it's forces at the Soviet front in Europe, German East Africa was mainly left alone, and was soon overrun by International forces and communist rebels. Zambezi had also fallen quickly to the International due to the war during the 70's and 80's, along with the white minority still struggling to maintain power, and Angola would also fall soon after. Despite the loses, Sudafrika, Rhodesia, and Portuguese Mozambique were able to hold off the International forces, due to the victory during the Zambezi war. Eventually, the front reaches a stalemate, and in 1997, the treaty of Maputo was signed to decide the fate of post-war Southern Africa.

The terms included:

- The Sudafrikan Federation, Republic of Rhodesia, and the Kingdom of Portugal must pay 1 million dollars in reparations for the war.

- Malawi will annex border regions from Zambezi.

- The Republic of Zambezi will become the Socialist Union of Zambia, and Kenneth Kaunda will return to power.

- The Weltreich will leave German East Africa, and the Socialist Republic of Tanganyika will be established.

- The Socialist Federation of Rwanda-Burundi will be established in the northern parts of Tanganyika.

- The People's Republic Of Angola will be established.

Overall, 1.2 million people died in the southern African front, with Sudafrika, Rhodesia, and the Congo suffering the most casualties. Sudafrika and Rhodesia were left in an interesting place after the war, as even though the white minority governments of the 2 countries had survived the war, the overall geopolitical situation had shifted, as the central powers had lost almost all of it's influence, and the Weltreich had to flee to it's oceanic colonies, and therefore losing much of it's global influence. This had brought great trouble to Sudafrika and Rhodesia, as without much of the Weltreichs support, the political situations in the 2 countries had become much more unstable, with anti apartheid forces becoming more and more vocal and gaining more and more power. Despite this, the 2 countries had still received support from countries such as India, Thailand, the Remains of the Weltreich, and later on, even Britain, as capitalism had started making a comeback, and the split between the Union of Britain and the Soviet Union had become more and more prevalent.

Sudafrika and Rhodesia also had to deal with many refugees, as after the apartheid states in Angola, Zambezi, and German East Africa were abolished, many of the white settlers were forced to leave by the new socialist governments, and as such both countries had seen an influx of new white settlers

In 2004, the military junta had ended, and Constand Viljoen stepped down from power, and Pieter Muldder had came to power in the first presidental election in years. Despite Sudafrika being stabilized after the war, things had complicated in the region the next year. In 2005, a communist coup occurred in Portugal, overthrowing the monarchy and replacing it with a pro-British government, and the next year, Portugal united with Spain, forming the Union of Iberian Socialist States. Because of this turn of events, Duarte II, his family, and many of his supporters were forced to relocate to Mozambique, the last remaining Portuguese colony. Mozambique, despite still being under Portugals thumb by that point, still had FRELIMO rebels occupying the northern regions of the country. The now in exile Kingdom of Portugal was desperate with peace, but with help from Sudafrika and Rhodesia, a peace deal was reached in 2006, being known as the treaty of Tete. The terms of the treaty were:

- Both sides would end all hostilities towards one another.

- All lands north of the Zambezi river would become the Socialist Republic of Mozambique, with it's capital in Nampula.

- Apartheid in the kingdom would be abolished, and the native black population would be given the same rights as the white minority.

- The first prime minister would also be a black person to help further equality between the white and black population.

- Sudafrika and Rhodesia will help rebuild the country after the years of war.

- Both the Socialist Republic of Mozambique and the Kingdom of Portugal/Mozambique will recognize each other as independent states.

Despite the treaties success in pleasing most people, many in the exiled kingdom still wanted the Portuguese out of the country, and to unite with their northern neighbors. Despite that, support from Rhodesia, Sudafrika, and later Britain ensured that the kingdom would survive in the upcoming years.

In the 2010 election, Pieter Groenewald rose to the presidency with 61% of the vote.

Despite the 2nd World War ending around 10 years ago, Southern Africa would still see wars to come. LIke most other countries in Southern Africa, Madagascar had also become an apartheid state, with it's first president being Wolfgang Altenburg. Similarly to Zambezi, the apartheid state of Madagascar struggled to maintain it's grip on power, and required help from the Sudafrikan Federation and Rhodesia to maintain power. Despite good relations with the Weltreich and Sudafrika, Madagascar stayed neutral to maintain stability, although it did sent supplies to the Central Powers in Africa, and volunteer legions fought in German East Africa and Zambezi. In 2011, Madagascar fell into a civil war, with rebel groups rising up against the apartheid government now led by Udo Pastörs. While at first the rebel groups stayed unified with the goal of overthrowing the government, differences between factions caused a split into 2 factions in 2014: The MNP (Malagasy National Party), an anti-communist group supported by Britain, France, India, and Somalia, and the FMLA (Free Malagasy Liberation Army) being supported by the Soviet Bloc, Ethiopia, and the Arab Jamahiriyan world. In 2015, Udo Pastörs was assassinated by FMLA rebels, causing the main government to collapse into a provisional government. Fighting continued until 2016, when the Battle of Antananarivo ended in a MNP victory, and proclaimed the Federal Republic of Madagascar, and established a transitional government. Afterwards, the remains of the former aprtheid government fled to Sudafrika, and the MNP vdeclared victory. Despite this, FMLA rebels still waged a guerrilla war, until the last pockets of FMLA resistance were defeated in the south part of the country in 2019.

In 2016, an election was held, and it saw Hery Rajaonarimampianina rise to the presidency. Despite a new black majority government coming to power, the new Malagasy government still saught to maintain relations with Sudakrika and the Central Powers.

Sudafrika also held elections in 2016, in which technician and engineer Elon Reeve Musk rose to the presidency with 68% of the vote. Musk had wanted to turn the Sudafrikan Federation into a super power, among the likes of the USSR, Britain, SSA, Mexico, Arab Jamariyha, and the Weltreich itself. Musk also wanted to turn Sudafrika into a technological powerhouse, and had started the long planned Sudafrikan nuclear program. Despite his ambitions, Musk was a controversial leader, as he had started to clamp down on certain freedoms, such as journalists being suppressed from writing any works criticizing him, and removing certain workers rights. There were also rumors that he had been sending Namibian independence groups into work camps in Botswana, which ended up being confirmed after an investigation in 2019.

Most infamously, Musk had some dictatorial tendencies, and increased the powers of the presidency throughout his reign, with some fearing he'd outright make himself a dictator for life, though no one was for sure certain. And while Musk wasn't actively putting in any policies to suppress the black population, he made little to no attempt to actually fix any problems they were facing, only decreasing his popularity amongst his critics The turning point however happened in 2018, when a drought hit the country, causing a water crisis as people started running out of clean drinking water. Musk was criticized as handling the crisis very poorly, and massive protests that turned into riots, causing clashes with the police and later military forces. The nail in the coffin happened in 2021, when an investigation discovered that he had plans to make himself dictator for life, and gotten pretty close to doing so. After this information came out, the riots only increased, and this eventually culminated in a military coup where musk was deposed and arrested, and a military transitional government until the problems of the country were resolved

As of 2021, the Sudafrikan Federation had a population of 65.2 million, and had significant influence over Southern Africa. It was ranked as the 22th richest country and 16th most powerful country in the world and had a medium to high HDI. During the rule of the military transitional government, massive efforts were made in order to deal with the drought, and certain reforms were made to improve the lives of black citizens, most notably the end of banstutans or "African homelands". While the rest of these changes weren't much, it was still a sign of progress in the country. In 2026, the transition back to democracy was finished, and a new presidential election was held, with Anton Alberts rising to the presidency with 72% of the vote. 2027 marked an important point in the new cold war, as it saw the meeting of Buenos Aires take place, where leaders from both the British bloc and Central Powers agreed to cooperate with each other on a matter of issues.

Despite Western Europe's return to capitalism, tensions were still present between the British and Weltreich, as the war had forced the Weltreich to flee to it's Oceanic colonies, and lost control of the mainland and the rest of it's colonies. However, certain countries of the Central Powers like Mexico and China had started to improve relations with the British bloc. Relations between the Weltreich and Britain had started to improve after the August Crisis of 2021, where Britain and the Weltreich started to improve in order to combat Soviet influence in the region.

In the aforementioned meeting of Buenos Aires, leaders from both the Central Powers and the British Bloc met in order to discuss the current geopolitical situation of the world, and other issues at the time. It also saw British Chairman Keir Starmer meeting with German Kaiser Friedrich IV, marking the first time a British Chairman and a German Kaiser had meet in person since the end of the 1st World War. The meeting resulted in

- Increased cooperation between the 2 sides.

- Numerous economic and trade agreements signed.

- British bloc recognizing the Weltreich as the legitimate government of Germany.

- British bloc sending supplies to help deal with the Syndicalist insurgency in Western Australia.

- Increased funding and supplies from both blocs to the Republic of China to help eliminate the communist insurgency in the north.

Overall. the meeting had been of great positive impact to the Sudafrikan Federation, which saw way more trading and other benefits with the British Bloc. Of course, the decade wasn't all good for the Sudafrikan Federation, as in 2029, the NFA (Namibian Freedom Army) had risen up in Namibia, in order to create a independent Namibian state, modeled after the SSA and Arab Jamariyha. At first starting off as a low level insurgency, it eventually became a full level independence war.

In 2032, Pieter de Necker had become president, with 54% of the vote. The 2030s saw plenty of economic growth in Sudafrika due to new relations with the British Bloc. The government also saught to create new jobs and overall improve the quality of life for the citizens. 2033 also saw the creation of the Lyon Entente, an alliance of British Bloc countries to fight against the August Agreement, as well as the SSA and Arab Jamahiriya and their allies. The newly founded Lyon Entente also agreed to send more military support to Sudafrika to fight against the NFA.

The new government also wanted to continue the Sudafrikan nuclear program that was abandoned after the 2021 coup. In 2034, development continued, with the help of British and Weltreich scientists, and in 2037, a test nuke was launched in the Namib desert, and proved to be a success. In 2038, Steven K. Steenkamp was elected president with 65% of the vote. The independence war in Namibia started to ramp up, as the Arab Jamariyhan World and SSA started sending more supplies to help the rebels, with volunteer legions being sent to fight as well. The Steenkamp administration had started detaining anyone suspected of being sympathetic towards the NFA, and over his administration, around 3000 people suspected NFA members and sympathizers were detained and arrested. The Government also wanted to join the Lyon Entente, and submitted an application to join in 2041. One other major change in the country was the flag itself. As in 2042, a new flag was created, heavily inspired by the flag of the state of Transvaal. This era also saw the end of the 1 party system of the country, as other new parties came to the spotlight, with Hans van Jaarsveld of the Labor Party becoming the president.

The new administration helped further improve living conditions in the country, especially in the region of Botswana, which had long been ignored by the government. In 2046, the Sudafrikan Federation joined the Lyon Entente, along with Rhodesia, the Kingdom of Portugal, Madagascar, and Puerto Rico. Worker rights were also improved, as to prevent a full on socialist revolution. In 2050, The 2050s saw plenty of economic growth in Sudafrika due to new relations with the British Bloc. The government also saught to create new jobs and overall improve the quality of life for the citizens. 2033 also saw the creation of the Lyon Entente, an alliance of British Bloc countries to fight against the August Agreement, as well as the SSA and Arab Jamariyha and their allies. The newly founded Lyon Entente also agreed to send more military support to Sudafrika to fight against the NFA.

The new government also wanted to continue the Sudafrikan nuclear program that was abandoned after the 2021 coup. In 2034, development continued, with the help of British and Weltreich scientists, and in 2037, a test nuke was launched in the Namib desert, and proved to be a success. The independence war in Namibia started to ramp up, as the Arab Jamahiriyan World and SSA started sending more supplies to help the rebels, with volunteer legions being sent to fight as well. The Steenkamp administration had started detaining anyone suspected of being sympathetic towards the NFA, and over his administration, around 3000 people suspected NFA members and sympathizers were detained and arrested. The Government also wanted to join the Lyon Entente, and submitted an application to join in 2041. One other major change in the country was the flag itself. As in 2042, a new flag was created, heavily inspired by the flag of the state of Transvaal.

This era also saw the end of the 1 part system of the country, as other new parties came to the spotlight, with Hans van Jaarsveld of the Labor Party becoming the president. The 2050 election sees Christiaan Schonland of the Liberal Party rise to the presidency with 58% of the vote. By this point, the NFA had almost all of Namibia under occupation, and as deaths rose with no changes in the front lines, it was clear to Christiaan Schonland that Sudafrika could no longer hold onto Namibia, and had started peace negotiations with the NFA. In on July 2nd, 2051, the peace treaty of Beria was signed, which saw Namibia gain independence as the Union of Namibia, Sudafrikan forces pulled out of Namibia, and the Sudafrikan Federation paying reputations to the newly founded Namibia. This was a very controversial move, as while many praised him as to bringing peace to the country, while others saw it as a betrayal to the country, especially since the new Namibia was a syndicalist state, giving the socialist bloc a new ally in the region. While the peace talks were in motion, protests against them rose up in Pretoria, but these were quickly put down by police forces. Regardless, Schonland popularity soared amongst his supporters, as he was seen as saving the country from a long, pointless, unwinnable war. Schonland also improved education, transportation, and healthcare in the country, further increasing his popularity, but this popularity would not last.

On August 26th, 2053, after finishing dinner with his wife, 4 armed men ambushed and shot Schonland, before running off. Schonland was immediately rushed to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead on arrival. A 1 week mourning period was declared, as Schonland's body was transported back to his birth town of Charles Hill. Leaders from countries such as Britain, France, Rhodesia, Madagascar, the Weltreich, India, and even the Arab Jamariyha and Soviet Union came to his funeral. After his death, vice president Arron H J Maartens had become president, and the 4 men responsible for the assassination were soon arrested and killed.

In 2056, Joseph Vorster of the Labor Party won with 67% of the vote. In the late 50's, Algeria and Morocco had fallen into war after decades of tension and border disputes. Morocco, much like many other countries with British military presence, also started leaning more towards capitalism, while Algeria had remained towards the socialist bloc and especially Libya, to the point where in 2007, Algeria had become a jamahiriya. During the war, the Sudafrikan federation had sent support to Morocco in order to gain a victory against it's long time rival on the continent. While at first Morocco and it's allies were doing well, the war turned in Algeria's favor when in May of 2058, Algeria had joined the Arab Jamahiriya, and in a very quick amount of time, it was able to push Moroccan forces back, and once Rabat fell to Jamahiryan forces, Morocco surrendered, causing the Lyon entente and Sudafrika to fall into an energy crisis.

New president Joseph Vorster than most other presidents, as while the others were content with keeping the white domination, Vorster had been very sympathetic towards the black majority, as he was inspired by former president De Klerks more anti-apartheid views. After the 2nd World War, the government had started to ease down on the systems of apartheid, and as such saw certain systems of apartheid being abolished, such as banstutans. Despite this, the black population still lacked certain rights that the white population had. While at first the white minority was heavily in favor of apartheid, after De Klerks presidency and the military coup of 1990, the opinion on apartheid had now become more mixed, as many more of the white minority started turning against it and sympathizing with the black majority. Vorster had wanted to break down many of the barriers the black population had faced. Throughout his presidency, Vorster had talked with many black rights activists to make the country a better place for it's entire population. This of course, made him many enemies, and saw many assassination attempts made on him, though these all ended up being thwarted. In 2060, an agreement was reached between the 2 sides, which would see the country have 2 presidents, 1 to represent the white population, and the other to represent the black population, and both of which would have equal power. Black people would also be allowed to run for other government positions, and this event be later be known as the "Great Sudafrikan Reform".

In 2062, the first election happened under the reform, and it saw Thomas Mofokeng of the Sudafrikan Democratic Party win the black presidency and John H, Cillers of the Conservative Party win the white presidency.

The 2060's marked an extremely important point in world politics, as it saw the long expected collapse of the Soviet Union due to the failure to organize a post-industrial automated cybernetic socialist economy. This saw most of the Soviet Bloc fall to neoliberal revolutions, with a few exceptions. After the revolutions, the Lyon entente and the Sudafrikan Federation had started to establish ties with the former Soviet Bloc. The new political system helped improve the living conditions for the black population, who had mostly been living in poverty for much of it's existence. However, problems elsewhere in the world were poping up. In 2068, only a few years after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Socialist Republic of Germany and the remnants of the Soviet Union in Southern Turkestan founded the 2nd Comintern, which would see other countries of the former Soviet Bloc join it. Not only that, in 2067, many heat waves had hit India, causing a huge decline in agricultural productions and exports, threatening the world with a potential famine. Because of this threat, the government had started working on many programs and policies to stop a potential famine from hitting Sudafrika.

The 2068 election saw Zanele Mhlongo of the Christian Democratic Party win the black presidency and Fredrick Badenhorst of the Liberal party win the white presidency. The election of Zanele also marked the first female president in Sudafrika. The 2070's saw global tensions rise more and more as war broke out between Somalia and Ethiopia. Much like it's allies Britain and India, the Sudafrikan federation also helped arm Somalia in the conflict to prevent further Arab Jamahiriyan influence in Africa. After a nuclear missile exploded out of no where in Siam in 2074, the world gathered in Tripoli to decide the fate of nuclear weapons, and eventually made a decision to ban and dismantle all nukes. Sudafrika had also agreed to this, and had started the process of disarming it's 64 nukes in possession. The 2074 election saw Petrus Naldoo of the Green Party win the black presidency, and William Haarhoff of the Christian Democratic Party win the white presidency. While the new government had continued the dismantlement of Sudafrika's nuclear arsenal, bigger problems had come up.

After decades of oil drilling in the north and south poles, much of the ice sheets have started to melt, causing the sea levels to rise to catastrophic levels, forcing most countries to build massive dams and implement other protections around the big cities on the coasts. The Naldoo-Haarhoff begins to build dams around the big coastal cities of Kapstadt and Durban to prevent flooding. The Sudafrikan Federation also sent money to it's neighbors to help in the production of dams. Due to that and it's mountainous terrain, the Sudafrikan Federation ends up being one of the countries least effected by the great flood.

In 2076, the pro-British government in Russia was overthrown by big agricultural capitalists, which caused the new government to expel British petroleum, causing a major geopolitical crisis. The 2080 presidential election saw Siyabonga R. Mazibuko of the Liberal Party win the black presidency and Gregory Mulder of the New Nationalist Party win the white presidency. The start of the 2080's had brought a big defeat to the Lyon Entente, as the pro-British government of Somalia lost the war, causing lots of distrust in Britain and India. The Sudafrikan government, despite all the reforms, had became more and more disliked by the general population, as socialist elements started becoming more and more repressed as tensions with the 2nd Comintern rose, and with the staunch anti-socialist, right wing Gregory Mulder rising to the white presidency, socialist elements became more persecuted, as corporations gained more power. The turning point happened in 2083, when striking workers in Soweto were put down by police, causing massive riots across the country.

With rising global tensions, an angry populace, among other issues, the military overthrew the government and established an emergency military government, led by head general Daniel van den Berg. The new military government had attempted to restore peace in the country, and eventually the riots died down in the middle of 2085. The new military government had also wanted to prevent a communist takeover in the country, and had started spying on many notable socialists in the country. The country functioned as normal until 2089, when a long expected 3rd World War started, eventually roping the Sudafrikan federation into it. At this point, the fate of the Sudafrikan Federation remained uncertain.
