This one? those are either Lee-Metfords or first model Lee-Enfields. They both looked identical.

Highly recommend it, but it covers a wide range of conflicts and isn't so good for exact periods.

Can anybody give me a clear explanation of the difference between the Oranje Vrijstaat and the Transvaalse Republiek? All I know is that the Vrijstaat kicked a bunch of Zulu butts

Both were pretty much Presidential dictatorships. And had Slavery.

GG on using Victoria 2 as a historical source.

The Vrystaat and the Zuid-Afrikaanse Republiek/Transvaal were simply two different nations. Transvaal was the bigger and more important of the two. If you want details, just search 'em up on wikipedia. Serves no purpose to just copy+paste it here.  :P

Around the Boer War the Oranje Vrijstaat and the Zuid-Afrikaanse Republiek were allies, together they fought against the brits.
Pretoria was the Capital of the Zuid Afrikaanse Republiek and Bloemfontein of the Oranje Vrijstaat.
