Description

Script Vidéo

Do you still remember… The only country on Earth… with three official capital cities? Yes… It's called South Africa.. They broke one of the oldest rules in politics... Most nations choose one city to rule them all.. But South Africa divided its power… into three different cities... In 1910… after many years of war... colonial fighting... and bitter political tension.. And nobody trusted each other... enough to let a single city become too powerful. So instead of choosing one capital… they split the government into pieces. No. 1.. Pretoria.. the old British stronghold.. Hosting the President and Cabinet. No. 2.. Cape Town.. the heart of the Boer Republic of Transvaal. home to the Parliament. No. 3.. Bloemfontein.. the center of the Orange Free State. home to the Supreme Court of Appeal.
