The history of the Transvaall Army
during the time that Transvaall was a occupied territory by Britain, many transvaalli men were conscripted to fight during both world wars and many would die, for hundreds of years the Transvaalli people were oppressed and many revolts would happen, 2 of the most famous among them were the September rebellion and the Eastern revolt, but in 2017 the "Transvaalli independence war" or nicknamed the "broers-oorlog" where they would finally get their independence and the rest is history.
