What happens
Long simmering tensions in South Africa have now broken out into open war. The fascist Nationalists claim that the policies of the democratic Unionist government are threatening the South African way of life. The Unionists, they say, stab the brave warriors of the Boer Wars in the back with their unconditional support for Britain. The Nationalist Provisional Government under the South African leader has called on all true patriots to join them in restoring freedom to South Africa through force of arms. The Unionist government in Pretoria has labeled the Nationalists "insurgents and traitors of the worst kind". With military forces declaring equally for both sides, the conflict in South Africa may take a long time to resolve.
