Namibia: The Story of a German Colony (Unter Herrenmenschen — Der deutsche Kolonialismus in Namibia)

Overview

Germans colonized the land of Namibia, in southern Africa, during a brief period of time, from 1840 to the end of the World War I. The story of the so-called German South West Africa (1884-1915) is hideous; a hidden and silenced account of looting and genocide.
