South Africa says no to Germany

Exactly two months ago, Hitler demanded the return of all former German colonies. South Africa though has replied a very resounding refusal.

The particular land that this affects is the former German South-West Africa which is now under British Mandate. Germany referred to this land as Deutsch-Südwestafrika.

In 1920, the Treaty of Versailles stripped Germany of its colonial territories.
