Review # 1 was written on 2010-08-03 00:00:00 Wai Fan Ammesa Chan Seretse Khama became the first President of Botswana after independence. From South African History Online: At the time, it was probably Africa’s poorest country, greatly indebted to Britain and surrounded by White-ruled states. But Khama refused to submit to their control, and under his rule Botswana’s economy, administration and relations with other Black African states were repaired and developed. During his time as President Botswana had the fastest growing economy in the world. It was a period of much civil strife in Africa, but Botswana remained free from war and corruption. In his last years he played an important role in southern African politics when he negotiated the future of Zimbabwe and South West Africa/Namibia and developed a vision of a southern Africa post-colonialism and post–apartheid, seen to be a key part in the development of the Southern African Development Community that has since been founded.
