    Apartheid was a system of racial segregation and discrimination enforced through legislation by the National Party government in South Africa between 1948 and 1994. It divided the population into four racial groups and imposed restrictions on political representation, land ownership, and where people could live and work based on their race. The system sought to maintain white minority rule and economically and socially discriminate against non-white racial groups. After decades of opposition and protest against apartheid, it was formally dismantled in the early 1990s amid increasing violence and international pressure.
