[COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]The concept of a [COLOR=rgb(0, 0, 0)]Volkstaat [COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]also called a[COLOR=rgb(0, 0, 0)] Boerestaat,[COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)] is a proposed view to establish an all-white Afrikaner homeland within the borders of South Africa, most commonly proposed as a fully independent Boer/Afrikaner nation. The concept excludes Afrikaans-speaking coloureds but accepts South Africans of English ancestry and other White South Africans, if they accept Afrikaner culture and customs.

Several different methods have been proposed for the establishment of a Volkstaat. Besides the use of force, the South African Constitution, and international law present certain possibilities for their establishment. The geographic dispersal of minority Afrikaner communities throughout South Africa presents a significant obstacle to the establishment of a Volkstaat, because Afrikaners do not form a majority in any separate geographic area that could be sustainable independently. Supporters of the proposal have established several land cooperatives in Orania in the Northern Cape province and Kleinfontein in Gauteng as practical implementations of the idea. Initiatives in Balmoral and Morgenzon, both in Mpumalanga, failed to develop beyond their initial phase.
