South Africa was already self-governing in 1914, just greatly influenced by Britain

Ooc: Actually according to the Debate map I own South Africa. And I'm not going to grant independence since a large amount of my resources come from there.

It's part of your Empire, but is self-governed so can make internal decisions, but Britain still owns it and can make over-ruling choices.

OOC: www.statusquo.org/impconf.htmlNow, as I understand it this means that while loyal to the crown dominions may rule themselves and set their own foreign policy so long as they maintain their loyalty to Britian. They have the option of declaring themselves free of Britain, but I suspect the Empire would respond, with force if neccessary.

Ooc: well then good. You will remain relatively unoppressed. I like to keep my colonies content with their situation.
