AI overview
A bantustan was a semi-autonomous territory created by the apartheid government of South Africa, designed to concentrate the Black African population in scattered, isolated areas while allowing the white minority to control the majority of the land. These territories matter historically because they were a central mechanism of racial segregation and control during apartheid, affecting millions of people's lives and rights.
