The Afrikaan Illuminati Part I - A Hearts of Iron 3 AAR.

Die Broderbond: The Afrikaans Illuminati

It matters not who sits in the Union Building, power does not reside there. Not Lord Clarendon, nor James Hertzog, not even King George V himself run the rule here in South Africa. We do. The captains of industry, the media moguls, bankers, religious leaders, the intelligensia and military generals: The Afrikans Broederbond. A secretive organization started in 1918 after the second Boer War to advance the ideals of Afrikaan nationalism and rid our nation of British interference.

Nothing in South Africa happens with the approval of the Broederbond. We may be hidden in a cloak of secrecy but our shadow looms over government affairs, the public sector and private business. It was our agents who ensured that in December 1920 the League of Nations voted to hand control of neighbouring Namibia to South Africa. Our influence led to Paliament passing the Status of the Union Act, which declared South Africa to be "a sovereign independent state" finally free from the influence of the British Crown.

Now, inspired by the sucesses of the former British colonies in the Americas, we have a new ambition. Those thirteen colonies on the East coast of the US rapidly expanded across the continent till the United States strecthed from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific. Today the USA is an international superpower. This is our ambition: the formation of The United States of Afrika.

The hard work begins today.
