South African Republic, 1894

South African Republic, 1894

Although at the time of the death of Kind Mswati I, the Swazis had reached agreements with British and South African Republic authorities over a range of issues, including independence, the whites reneged on those agreements. Over Swazi protests, the South African Republic with British concurrence established incomplete colonial rule over Swaziland in 1894. As a result the “vierkleur” (Four colour) flag of the Zuid Afrikaansche Republiek (Transvaal) was flown, a flag based on that of the Netherlands with a green stripe, standing for hope and youthfulness, at the hoist.
