  • nikilithandamase18 on 26 Apr 23
     
    Guns had a devastating impact in the Cape Colony during the Dutsch war, lives were lost and animals. The Cape was left dry without Lions, Giraffes, and other animals such as elephants. This shows that guns gave the Dutch people power to hunt and kill people in the Cape Colony. The Xhosa people used firearms to fight in the 1846-7 war. The military trend was begun by the Dutch colonists. The military not only had physical impact on the environment and on indigenous people but influenced how these were imagined in the broader colonial discourse.
