The Republic of South Africa is, without question, the most successful nation on the continent. Over the past century, it has built a peaceful, prosperous society, one which has done much to solve the deep problems plaguing Africa as a whole.
The Republic’s society is a model of multiracial integration, to an astonishing degree considering the nation’s history. Local law is fiercely opposed to any hint of ethnic discrimination, and emphasizes equal treatment for all. Intermarriage between ethnic groups has become quite common.
Another phenomenon, almost unique to South Africa, has been the production of "transracial" human types. These genetic upgrades or parahumans are specifically designed to either meld features of every human racial type, or to create distinctive physical forms which match none of the "natural" races. Transracial modifications first became popular in the 2050s, as part of a pan-Africanist movement emphasizing cultural and physical diversity. Today they account for perhaps 15% of the population.
South African biotechnology has been a significant factor in the continent’s development, ever since the rise of Ithemba Biotechnologies in the 2020s. This has naturally led to South African dominance in local politics. Today the Republic leads the South African Coalition, a bloc of more or less prosperous African nations which have all benefited from its expertise in genetic and ecological engineering.
Today the Republic is a fully developed Fifth Wave nation, with technology and standard of living comparable to those of many European nations. It is a world leader in biotechnology and ecological engineering, and is rapidly developing its Fifth Wave industries. It is also the main commercial and financial center for sub-Saharan Africa.
