One time I was hammered and a buddy of mine takes me to a huge wine cellar like this because he wanted to show me a rare cask of Amontillado. What happened next left me FUMING.

The Zuurveld
Despite not being particularly good for agriculture (the grazing is alright relative to other places in southern Africa, but still expect hardship), nor particularly fair, the Boers, Xhosa, Dutch, British and Khoi fought for it for about one hundred years.
The Frontier Wars fought essentially for control of the Zuurveld ended up being the longest running series of conflicts in colonial history.
If you're looking to aquire land in southern Africa, why not start with something more challenging, but with something that will put you in the halls of history?
You likely won't succeed, but the respect and experience you acquire will allow you to seize land with greater ease: your enemies will fear the one who dared to attempt to take the Zuurveld and anything from there is easy.

From the late Middle Ages, Western European art became globally distinctive in several respects:
1) Secular representations of ordinary people.
2) Couples entwined, holding hands
3) Unlike the rest of Eurasia, women are publicly visible.

*I've seen things you wouldn't believe. Wrapping paper cascading off the edge of the kitchen table. I've watched batteries glitter in the dark near the bottom of the junk drawer. Heard footsteps on the stairs at 11.47 PM — 'Santa won't come if you're awake, go back to bed.' All those hours will be lost in time... like receipts in the bin. Time for bed."
