Racial discrimination may be as old as human history, but the system of apartheid - Africans for "apartness" 
- was created only in the late 1940s, after the National Party was voted into office by disgruntled Afrikaners. 
The apartheid era started with the passage in 1949 of the Prohibition of Mixed Marriages Act, which laid the 
foundation of an elaborate system of discriminatory legislation. Hence, while most other countries were 
condemning colonialism, white South Africa established a frankly racist regime. Racism alone was not what 
made apartheid uniquely evil; prejudice and discrimination existed elsewhere, even in some black countries. 
However, by the 1980s, racism was deplored almost everywhere; when other nations succumbed to it, they 
did so in violation of their own laws and stated principles. Only in South Africa was racism the law of the 
land.

B) an unjust disadvantage given to whites. 
C) discriminatory legislation passed by the North African state. 
D) the ban of interracial marriages. 
E) the idea of disgruntled Africans. 
2. What differentiates apartheid from other kinds of racial discrimination was - 
A) that it was not approved by the whites in South Africa. 
B) that it was legally abandoned by the state. 
C) its legal enforcement by the state. 
D) its separation of blacks from whites. 
E) that it prohibited interracial sex.
