Answer:
In 1994, South Africa held its first elections based on universal suffrage.
Step-by-step explanation:
South Africa (RSA), until very recently, or more specifically, until 1994, was a country where racism was openly practiced in all spheres of life. The period of institutional racism in South Africa is known as the Apartheid. Despite having movements for equal rights for several decades, the government was not giving up on their requirements and did everything in its power to suppress such movements.
It was only after the big pressure and sanctions from the international community that the government of South Africa gave up and accepted elections based on universal suffrage and granting equal rights to all citizens all of the racial, ethnic, and religious groups. This led to the first black government in South Africa and it has been the case ever since. While it may seem that the problem has been solved, the reality is that now there is open racism which is supported by some political parties and is not punished over the white population in South Africa, with the rural white population suffering the most. Thus the situation has only reversed roles.
