What is "bushmanland"

Bushmanland (Afrikaans: Boesmanland) was a bantustan in South-West Africa (present-day Namibia), intended by the apartheid government to be a self-governing homeland for the San people (the Bushmen). Despite this, a government was not established in the region.

Bushmanland, like other homelands in South West Africa, was abolished in May 1989 at the start of the transition to independence.

Bushmanland (Boesmanland in Afrikaans) may refer to:

• Bushmanland (South-West Africa)
• Bushmanland, Northern Cape, south of the Orange River and west of Kenhardt and east of Springbok (Namaqualand) in the Northern Cape, South Africa
