Orania (Afrikaans pronunciation: [ʊəˈrɑːnia]) is a town founded by Afrikaners in South Africa. It is located along the Orange River in the Karoo region of the Northern Cape province. The town is split in two halves by the R369 road, and is 871 kilometres (541 mi) from Cape Town and 680 kilometres (420 mi) from Pretoria. Its climate is semi-arid. The town and its mono-ethnic and monoculturalist ideals have been the subject of much press coverage. The town was founded with the goal of creating a stronghold for the Afrikaner minority group, the Afrikaans language and the Afrikaner culture through the creation of a White Afrikaner ethnostate known as a Volkstaat. The town is generally described as "Whites-only". More information...
