History
In the 19th century, hostilities broke out between Tswanaballs and Ndebeleballs who were making incursions into the territory from the north-east. Tensions also escalated with the Boerballss from the Transvaal to the east. UKball put Bechuanalandball under its protection on 31 March 1885.

An expansion of UKball central authority and the evolution of tribal government resulted in the 1920 establishment of two advisory councils to represent both 8balls and Europeans.

In June 1964, UKball accepted proposals for a democratic self-government in Botswanaball.

The 1965 constitution led to the first general elections and to independence on 30 September 1966.

Botsawanaball formed a military to stop South Africaball and  Zimbabweball using its territory to sort their differences out.

Botswanaball has a agreement with USAball to set up a Africom base on its clay.

A long-running dispute over the northern border with  Namibia's Caprivi Strip was the subject of a ruling by the International Court of Justice in December 1999, which ruled that  Kasikili Islandball belongs to Botswanaball.

Botswanaball is the freest and least corrupt countryball on continental Africaball.
