On this day, 6 April, in 1652, Jan van Riebeeck arrived at the Cape of Good Hope with the first two of his three ships, Drommedaris and Goede Hoop. His third ship, Reijger, arrived on the next day. His party were not the first Europeans to set foot in South Africa, with Bartolomeu Dias having first visited South Africa in 1488, but they were the first to create a permanent settlement.
When Jan van Riebeeck arrived there were no roads, no ports, no buildings of any kind in the area of modern South Africa. South Africa did not exist. Today, South Africa exists because successive waves of White Europeans settled this country, tamed it's wilderness and built an outpost of Western civilization in dark Africa against all the odds.
This is a reminder for the White people of South Africa, the Boers, and for our White kin internationally, that South Africa is our Fatherland. South Africa rightfully belongs to us as White men, we have built it, we have named it and we WILL reclaim it!
