Pretoria's history is deeply intertwined with South Africa's colonial and apartheid eras. Founded in 1855, it became the capital of the South African Republic (ZAR) and later the administrative capital of the Union of South Africa in 1910. The city played a pivotal role during apartheid, housing government institutions that enforced racial segregation laws. Since the 1990s, Pretoria has transformed into a symbol of reconciliation and democracy, reflecting the country's journey towards inclusivity and unity.
