1. South Africa
White Population: 4,586,838
The first thing that comes to mind when mentioning South Africa today is definitely Apartheid, and this is probably the best indicator to portray how complex the history of this country actually is. It has started with the Dutch in 1692 and continued with the British in 1795. After that, there were some periods of giving the territory back to Dutch and taking it away from them again, and so many other events until 1961, when South Africa left the Commonwealth and became a republic. Of course, the story regarding the apartheid continued until the first democratic elections in 1994, when Nelson Mandela became president. This and many other things resulted to this number today, and in the fact that South Africa is number one when it comes to African countries with the largest white population.
