| Summary: | Africa has been a land-based geography where European imperialism has reached its peak and a ruthless competition. At the beginning of the 19th century explorers, missionaries and those who acted against the slavery and the slave trade, excused the claims of the European imperialists to civilization on the Black Continent. The Transvaal Question and the Boer War are the name of the struggle for domination between the white inhabitants of the Dutch origin and the British colonialists, called the Boers, at the southernmost tip of the Black Continent. In other words, coming to the region later the Boerler who settled in and made this place a homeland, was a struggle against the imperialist British. This bloody war between white people on the Black Sea was followed by different motives by the ruling, intellectual and military circles in the Ottoman state. All these circles have approached the subject according to the conjuncture, their pastures, their past, their world views and interests. Accordingly, the Young Turks in the idea of providing the support of Britain to the opposition movement against Abdülhamid II supported the British, which they described as the hero of liberty and democracy, while the supporters of the German anti-German supported the Boers.
