Certain South African refers to the people of South Africa, which is a country located in the southernmost part of the continent of Africa. The term includes three distinct ethnic groups: ZULU, BOER, and Bantunative. The ZULU are the largest ethnic group in South Africa, and their language is the most widely spoken in the country. The BOER are descendants of Dutch settlers who arrived in South Africa in the 17th century. The Bantunative are a mix of Bantu-speaking peoples who have lived in the region for centuries. All three of these ethnic groups have contributed to the culture and history of South Africa.
