What is the name of Afrikaaner frontier farmers in South Africa?

The name of Afrikaaner frontier farmers in South Africa is "Boers". The term "Boer" is derived from the Dutch word "boer", which means "farmer" or "peasant". The Boers were originally Dutch settlers who arrived in South Africa in the 17th century. They established a number of independent republics in the interior of South Africa, including the Transvaal Republic and the Orange Free State. The Boers were defeated by the British in the Second Boer War (1899-1902), and their republics were annexed into the British Empire. However, the Boers retained a strong sense of cultural and ethnic identity, and they continued to play an important role in South African society.
