Second Boer War
The Second Boer War ((オランダ語:Tweede Boerenoorlog), (アフリカーンス語:Tweede Vryheidsoorlog), literally "Second Freedom War") otherwise known as the Second Anglo-Boer War, was fought from 11 October 1899 until 31 May 1902 between the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland on the one hand, and the South African Republic (Transvaal Republic) and the Orange Free State on the other. The British war effort was supported by troops from several regions of the British Empire, including Southern Africa, the Australian colonies, Canada, Newfoundland, British India, and New Zealand. The war ended in victory for the British and the annexation of both republics. Both would eventually be incorporated into the Union of South Africa in 1910.
==Name==
The conflict is commonly referred to as simply the Boer War, since the First Boer War (December 1880 to March 1881) is much less well known. "Boer" was the common term for Afrikaans-speaking settlers in southern Africa at the time. It is also known as the South African War outside South Africa and as the (Second) Anglo-Boer War among South Africans. In Afrikaans it may be called the ''Anglo-Boereoorlog'' ("Anglo-Boer War"), ''Tweede Boereoorlog'' ("Second Boer War"), ''Tweede Vryheidsoorlog'' ("Second Freedom War", i.e. a war of liberation) or ''Engelse oorlog'' ("English War").
