Orania South Africa Afrikaans Speaking Whites Only Town & Homeland

  • I visited Orania! A bustling town of just over 2000 permanent residents on the banks of the Orange River in the Northern Cape province, roughly in the very centre of South Africa. As an enclave of white Afrikaans speakers, it's also possibly the most controversial town in the country.
    NB! I don't believe that segregation is a positive thing for humanity, although like the Amish for example, provided that they don't infringe on the rights of others, I'm of the opinion that there can be space in the world for those who prefer to live in their own communities. My video is intended to be neither positive or negative towards Orania, or the people that have made the personal choice to live there, it has no opinion, it's purely to show an interesting and unique piece of South Africa.
    Orania was originally built in 1963 to house workers building irrigation canals from the Vanderkloof Dam, a few kilometres upstream on the Orange River. It was originally named Vluytjeskraal after the farm on which it was built, but renamed Orania a couple of years later. It was abandoned once construction was completed.
    The town was purchased in 1990 by a group or Afrikaans families headed by Carel Boshoff, son in law of Hendrik Verwoerd, architect of the apartheid system for ZAR1.5 million. In 1991 the first families moved in and the town of Orania was reborn.
    Orania now has a population of over 2000 people and it's growing. The town is privately owned by the Vluytjeskraal Share Block Company. Ownership of plots and houses is in the form of shares in the company, so there are no title deeds or private ownership in the truest sense.
    There's a strong sense of identity evident even when visiting for a short time, it has it's own currency the Ora, pegged to the South African Rand, a radio station, and it's own flag. Only Afrikaans speakers are granted the right to residence, so while it's not officially "white only", it is so by default. There are 2 schools, shops, hotel, restaurants, library and a post office in town, being almost crime free, there is no permanent police presence.
    It's a different place for sure, and one that wouldn't appeal to most people, but definitely unique and definitely worth a visit.

      @@Vulcaani What you said makes no sense. When the Dutch arrived they had a war with Khoi people in the cape, eventually the Khoi had to flee and join Xhosas who were in the Eastern cape. When the Europeans moved up the coasy they waged war on the Xhosa, then when they moved in land they waged war on the other Sotho Tswana tribes. Then they also moved back down to the eastern coast where they waged war with the Zulus.
      Zulus as a nation formed in the 1800s before that they were smaller scattered Nguni tribes. So it's nonsense when you say Zulus killed Khoisana. Also which Khwe people hate Zulus. You just made that up. It is the Europeans that drove the Khwe to extinction. They even put them in concentration camps in Namibia and were hunting them like game in SA.

      Dear Anna,
      well, you may be right: There is no "CRIME" in Orania untill one day when someone arrives and enslaves you, killing your child and does what he or she wants with your loved nones. He goes on further, to take away your properties and denies you every right to exist, of which you will have to fight a long battle which you may loose!
      Now, will you describe it as a "CRIME" or do you have nice WORDS to cover up these
      TRAGEDIES ??
      Again, consider that you were lucky to come out of these TROUBLES and you forgave him whilst he still keeps all your properties he stole away from you and he further proceeds moving away and starts to behave clearly as before.
      You know an African adage that Says:
      "He who is once bitten by a snake gets panic when he/she sees a millipede".
      Now the ball is in your court and I hope you will be sincere.

    It really is a beautiful town. My brother, my dad and his wife and I went on holiday there from the 27th of December to 2 January 2021-2022.
    We mostly stayed inside of the chalet we rented because it was quite hot, but from 7pm to 9pm my brother and I walked the entire town flat, watched all the houses being built and so on.
    We wen to monument hill, and saw all the greenery from up top, took a tour through the town with the bus and learnt more about the economy, population growth and history of the town as well as the formidable roleplayers and leaders who lived and or visited Orania, like Nelson Mandela, Bettie Verwoerd, Zuma and more recently the Indonesian Ambassadors.
    The town is growing rapidly, about 16% per year, with a 25% growth in industry, which is really amazing for a small town, especially in the Northern Cape of all places where even the big cities have a negative population and economic growth rate.

Why do you think white areas are green and clean while African towns are sandy, no trees, and ridden with rubbish. No respect for mother earth what so ever. So much for people of the land. Its just an obvious fact of the two different peoples of SA. Also Africans kill each other in droves, and since 94 more African people have been killed by their own, than all the wars of the past combined.

I believe it's a peaceful and very crime free place where Afrikaners can live in peace. Much like so many village people in South-Africa. I have friends that came from villages and they are very proud of their heritage and believes. Same with these people in Orania. Would love to live there myself one day as I'm very proud of my culture🥰 And I hate racism.

    There's a lot we don't understand about our South African Constitution some of us. Did this constitution allow these folks to have a village Orania strictly White Afrikaners only inside South Africa? Also these folks to have their own currency? So, if maybe this constitution has allowed them to be by themselves and have their own things in their own space and do as they wish, own currency, culture, schools everything of their own, Now a question is: Why is it wrong for them to use this flag they love so dearly in their own Orania? The flag belongs to them. May somebody explain how does it work please? 🙏✌️

      The entire area is privately owned by Vluytjeskraal Aandeleblok (Ltd) so technically they can say who's allowed on their property. They do _not_ have a constitution but do have Ts&Cs occupants must comply to (as seen on the noticeboard on entry). They do not have their own currency as they trade with ZAR. since they don't have their own Minting division/Finance department, moreso since they don't have a full blown government that require these things They still use the resources of South Africa. Them doing what they want on their private property is not a problem because, well, it's private property.
