Answer:

By 1814, the British had acquired the Cape from the Boers. There they established a colony where power was held in the hands of whites and slaves imported from Dutch colonies. Indigenous Africans were subject to the rule of the British. The Boers left Cape Colony in the 'Great Trek' and founded their own republics.
