The Boer War, fought from 1899 to 1902, was primarily between the British Empire and two Boer republics: the South African Republic (Transvaal) and the Orange Free State. The conflict arose from tensions over British imperial expansion and Boer independence. The war was marked by guerrilla warfare tactics employed by the Boers and the British response, which included the use of concentration camps. Ultimately, the war ended with British victory, leading to the unification of South Africa under British control.
