The racial groups in South Africa have a variety of origins. Statistics South Africa asks people to describe themselves in the census in terms of five racial population groups. The 2011 census figures for these categories were Black African at 76.4%, White at 9.1%, Coloured at 8.9%, Indian or Asian at 2.5%, and Other/Unspecified at 0.5%. Statistics South Africa provided five racial categories by which people could classify themselves, the last of which, "unspecified/other" drew negligible responses, and these results were omitted.〔(Census 2001 ), Statistics South Africa.〕 The 2010 midyear estimated figures for the other categories were Black African at 78.4%, White at 10.2%, Coloured at 8.8%, and Indian or Asian at 2.6%.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Midyear population estimates: 2010 )〕 The first census in South Africa in 1911 showed that whites made up 22% of the population; it declined to 16% in 1980. ==Blacks== (詳細はBasotho (South Sotho), Bapedi (North Sotho), Venda, Tswana, Tsonga, Swazi and Ndebele, all of which speak Bantu languages. Some, such as the Zulu, Xhosa, and Bapedi are unique to South Africa. Other groups are distributed across the borders with neighbours of South Africa: The Basotho group is also the major ethnic group in Lesotho. The Tswana ethnic group constitute the majority of the population of Botswana. The Swazi ethnic group is the major ethnic group in Swaziland. The Ndebele ethnic group is also found in Matabeleland in Zimbabwe, where they are known as the Matabele. These Ndebele people are the descendants of a Zulu faction under the warrior Mzilikazi that escaped persecution from Shaka by migrating to their current territory. The Tsonga ethnic group is also found in southern Mozambique, where they are known as the Shangaan.
