Oriana A Town In Northern Cape, South Africa With 97.2% Of White.(photo's) by dtito(m): 11:14am On Oct 18, 2014
Orania is an Afrikaner-only South African town located along the Orange River in the arid Karoo region of Northern Cape province. It is a whites only town.

The aim of the town is to create a stronghold for Afrikaans and the Afrikaner identity by keeping their language and culture alive. Anyone who defines themselves as an Afrikaner and identifies with Afrikaner ethnicity is welcome in Orania.In 2004 Orania introduced its own currency, the Ora. Seventy businesses are located in oriana.

The town is split in two halves by the R369 road, and lies halfway between Cape Town and Pretoria.

According to its founders, the purpose of Orania is to create a town where the preservation of Afrikanerdom's cultural heritage is strictly observed and Afrikaner selfwerksaamheid ("self reliance"wink is an actual practice, not just an idea. All jobs, from management to manual labour, are filled by Afrikaners only; non-Afrikaner workers are not permitted. "We do not want to be governed by people who are not Afrikaners", said Potgieter, the previous chairman. "Our culture is being oppressed and our children are being brainwashed to speak English".

The town's ultimate objective is to create an Afrikaner majority in the north-western Cape, by encouraging the construction of other such towns, with the eventual goal of an Afrikaner majority in the area and an independent Afrikaner state between Orania and the west coast; also known as a Volkstaat.


Carel Boshoff, the founding father of Orania, had originally envisaged a population of 60,000 after 15 years.While Boshoff conceded that most Afrikaners might decide not to move to the volkstaat, he thought that it is nevertheless essential Afrikaners have this option, since this will make them feel more secure, thereby reducing tensions in the rest of South Africa. In this regard he considered it as being analogous with Israel, which serves as a refuge for Jews from all over the world.

First of all, u are senseliss. SA is not a black country. Here we have black, white, colored and Indian. Secondly, Orania is what you will call previously white neighborhood. It is cut of from civilization, and yes, they are still hoping for the apartheid days to return. But that will never happen. So let them live in isolation and die.

So the real south africans are mixed coloured...... I don't know why you are reasoning like that but take it or leave it SA is a black nation because the blacks are the dominant population. Ever since mandela left the presidency, SA had black presidents (thabo mbeki and jacob zuma). Its so annoying to see a south african deny his root while jamaicans in faraway north america are insisting that they are africans not americans....... You claimed these racist in orania wants the return of apaetheid...... Even if its impossible to achieve, this fools have started creating a sense of superiority complex among themselves by trying to have their own currency in a sovereign nation......
