The early history of South Africa Oom Paul Kruger part 2

Now Oom (Uncle) Paul beloved of the Boer Volk (people) having faced the might of the Zulu Impies in his youth was not in later years going to allow a sickly Englishman to deprive the Volk of all they had fought so hard for over many years first it had been the British who had deprived the Boer Volk of their hard earned property by releasing the slaves which had belonged to the poor Boer Farmers in the Cape Colony it was just to much of a slap in the collective Boer face when they were paid out by the British government a few pennies on the pound for property which had cost a small fortune it was also the discomfort of loosing the personal link  after all the poor Boer farmers worked hard at impregnating successive generations of their slave woman so they would have a cheap source of labor now that was all gone. But all of this had happened in Oom Paul’s youth before the massacre of the Boer Voortrekkers and before the “VOW” one spoke softly of the “VOW” with reverence and respect because old Andries Pretorius had gathered the Volk together on the eve of the battle of Blood river and promised The ALL MIGHTY that the Boer volk would be subservient and keep the ALL MIGHTYS name Holy  all the days of their lives and their children’s lives until the nth generation if The ALL MIGHTY deliver the Zulu hordes and grant the Boer Victory.

The ALL MIGHTY duly cautioned delivered the Zulu nation into the hands of the small group of Boers at Blood river and since then the Volk had kept the Name of the ALL MIGHTY sacred and close to their collective hearts for there is no distinction between religion and politics

Now this sickly Englishman (a pox upon him) was making plans to lay his slimy hands upon the wealth of the ZuidAfrikanerRepublic. 

Oom Paul did not give a fig for the Englishman’s dreams of a British Empire stretching the Cape of Good Hope to Cairo  all Oom Paul wanted was to preserve his Volks home land and territory.
