Abstract:Namibian reality prior to the process of colonization demonstrates that the Namibian people had a history of their own. The local communities were in a process of constant internal change. This paper focuses attention on this period of internal relations in Namibia before colonial activities emerged, and on the subsequent stages of colonial interaction and the final establishment of foreign rule, which, in the end, paved the way for present-day colonial relations in illegally occupied Namibia. Finally, it argues that the system forcefully imposed upon the people shaped the foundations and pillars of colonial relations under illegal South African occupation, as it continues to exist today.
