South Africa, officially the Union of South Africa, is a country in southern Africa formed in 1910 as an autonomous colony of the British empire. However with the British Empire collapsing after the end of the Second World War, the country became independent.
While it is still a monarchy, it doesn't have a King or Queen stopping short of recognising Elizabeth II in fears of provoking the wrath of the German Reichskommisariats bordering them.
In-Game
As of 1962, The Union is in strife, with tensions with the Boers at a all time high along with the African National Congress demanding equal rights for the Black majority.
South Africa remains neutral, a part of neither the OFN nor the Enheitspakt. The Player will get to work with the Boers and suppress the African National Congress or to end racial discrimination of Black Africans and enlist the support of the ANC.
When the German Civil War begans, South Africa too will collapse into a civil war with the Boer led African Volksstaat, The African National Congress will secede from the Union too if the player does not work with them. Amidst the civil war the Reichskommisariats to the north will form the Afrika-Schild and invade South Africa in support of the Boers , causing a direct intervention by the OFN and kickstarting the South African War.
