Concept:Afrikaners are a white ethnic group in South Africa, descended mainly from Dutch, German, and French Huguenot settlers.
Explanation:They speak Afrikaans, a West Germanic language evolved from 17th-century Dutch.
Historically, they were called Boers, especially the farmer-settlers.
In South Africa’s racial classification, Afrikaners form a white minority, separate from Black African, Coloured, and Indian/Asian communities.
They played key roles in the Great Trek (1830s–40s), the formation of Transvaal and Orange Free State, and the Anglo-Boer War (1899–1902).
Thus, Afrikaners are specifically the white minority group in South Africa, not Indo-Africans or indigenous tribes.
