== Geography ==
The Transvaal Colony lay between [[Vaal River]] in the south and the [[Limpopo River]] in the north, roughly between 22½ and 27½ S, and 25 and 32 E. To its south it bordered with the [[Orange Free State]] and [[Natal Colony]], to its south-west were the [[Cape Colony]], to the west was the [[Bechuanaland Protectorate]] (later [[Botswana]]), to its north was [[Company rule in Rhodesia|Rhodesia]], and to its east were [[Portuguese East Africa]] and [[Swaziland]]. Except in the south-west, these borders were mostly well defined by natural features.<ref>{{cite EB1911 | wstitle=Transvaal |volume=27 |last= Cana |first= Frank Richardson |author-link= |pages = 186&ndash;210 |short=1 }}</ref> Within the Transvaal lies the [[Waterberg Massif]], a prominent ancient geological feature of the South African landscape.
