Seller's Description
Germany South West Africa: Herero Rebellion 1906 Feldpost postcard, Gobabis (desert watering hole) to Germany, North Artillary Cancel with circular violet ''Soldatenbrief Stempel'' handstamp. The Nama War: Herero and Namaqua Genocide was a campaign of racial extermination and collective punishment that the German Empire undertook in German South-West Africa. It is considered as one of the first genocides of the 20th century.
German General Von Trotha, a seasoned African campaigner, had been sent to crush the resistance and he ordered that,""Within the German borders every Herero, whether armed or unarmed, with or without cattle, will be shot. I shall not accept any more women or children. I shall drive them back to their people - otherwise I shall order shots to be fired at them"". He proceeded to poison watering holes including Gobabis. In a report published in London in 1918, January Cloete of Omaruru stated under oath that, when they defeated the Herero, German soldiers killed unarmed women and children.
