Write about the 100 years war between France and England. It lasted from 1337-1453, or the Black Death(or Plague) which was from 1348-1349. Another suggestion is writing about Magellan going around the world from 1519-1522.

The country is Lesotho, a constitutional monarchy.  When South Africa was under British rule, it was administered as a separate colony (apart from a few years) and became a its own country when colonial rule ended.  It looks like it was separate because it was too much trouble for the South African government to want to deal with in the 1870s and early 1880s, so they made the British Crown deal with it.

After the British seized the Cape of Good Hope area in 1806, many of the Dutch settlers (the Boers) trekked north to found their own republics. The discovery of diamonds (1867) and gold (1886) spurred wealth and immigration and intensified the subjugation of the native inhabitants. The Boers resisted British encroachments, but were defeated in the Boer War (1899-1902). The resulting Union of South Africa operated under a policy of apartheid - the separate development of the races. The 1990s brought an end to apartheid politically and ushered in black majority rule.\n\nLocation:   \nSouthern Africa, at the southern tip of the continent of Africa  \nGeographic coordinates:   \n29 00 S, 24 00 E  \nMap references:   \nAfrica  \nArea:    \ntotal: 1,219,912 sq km \nland: 1,219,912 sq km \nwater: 0 sq km \nnote: includes Prince Edward Islands (Marion Island and Prince Edward Island)  \nArea - comparative:   \nslightly less than twice the size of Texas  \nLand boundaries:   \ntotal: 4,862 km \nborder countries: Botswana 1,840 km, Lesotho 909 km, Mozambique 491 km, Namibia 967 km, Swaziland 430 km, Zimbabwe 225 km  \nCoastline:   \n2,798 km  \nMaritime claims:   \nterritorial sea: 12 nm \ncontiguous zone: 24 nm \nexclusive economic zone: 200 nm \ncontinental shelf: 200 nm or to edge of the continental margin  \nClimate:   \nmostly semiarid; subtropical along east coast; sunny days, cool nights  \nTerrain:   \nvast interior plateau rimmed by rugged hills and narrow coastal plain  \nElevation extremes:   \nlowest point: Atlantic Ocean 0 m \nhighest point: Njesuthi 3,408 m  \nNatural resources:   \ngold, chromium, antimony, coal, iron ore, manganese, nickel, phosphates, tin, uranium, gem diamonds, platinum, copper, vanadium, salt, natural gas  \nLand use:   \narable land: 12.08% \npermanent crops: 0.79% \nother: 87.13% (2001)  \nIrrigated land:   \n13,500 sq km (1998 est.)  \nNatural hazards:   \nprolonged droughts  \nEnvironment - current issues:   \nlack of important arterial rivers or lakes requires extensive water conservation and control measures; growth in water usage outpacing supply; pollution of rivers from agricultural runoff and urban discharge; air pollution resulting in acid rain; soil erosion; desertification  \nEnvironment - international agreements:   \nparty to: Antarctic-Environmental Protocol, Antarctic-Marine Living Resources, Antarctic Seals, Antarctic Treaty, Biodiversity, Climate Change, Climate Change-Kyoto Protocol, Desertification, Endangered Species, Hazardous Wastes, Law of the Sea, Marine Dumping, Marine Life Conservation, Ozone Layer Protection, Ship Pollution, Wetlands, Whaling \nsigned, but not ratified: none of the selected agreements  \nGeography - note:   \nSouth Africa completely surrounds Lesotho and almost completely surrounds Swaziland  \n   People    South Africa Top of Page  \nPopulation:    \n44,344,136 \nnote: estimates for this country explicitly take into account the effects of excess mortality due to AIDS; this can result in lower life expectancy, higher infant mortality and death rates, lower population and growth rates, and changes in the distribution of population by age and sex than would otherwise be expected (July 2005 est.)  \nAge structure:   \n0-14 years: 30.3% (male 6,760,137/female 6,682,013) \n15-64 years: 64.5% (male 13,860,727/female 14,750,496) \n65 years and over: 5.2% (male 893,360/female 1,397,403) (2005 est.)  \nMedian age:   \ntotal: 23.98 years \nmale: 23.12 years \nfemale: 24.86 years (2005 est.)  \nPopulation growth rate:   \n-0.31% (2005 est.)  \nBirth rate:    \n18.48 births/1,000 population (2005 est.)  \nDeath rate:    \n21.32 deaths/1,000 population (2005 est.)  \nNet migration rate:   \n-0.22 migrant(s)/1,000 population (2005 est.)  \nSex ratio:   \nat birth: 1.02 male(s)/female \nunder 15 years: 1.01 male(s)/female \n15-64 years: 0.94 male(s)/female \n65 years and over: 0.64 male(s)/female \ntotal population: 0.94 male(s)/female (2005 est.)  \nInfant mortality rat
