The Western half of South Africa was never really stolen by the Bantu, it was still Khoisan when the Boers turned up, after which the Khoisan were eventually merged into the Coloured population (who are, for the most part, descended from the Khoisan rather than Bantu - a particularly woke thing to do in South Africa these days is to refer to coloured people as Khoisan) who are still the plurality across most of the Western and Northern capes. It’s only since the end of apartheid that they’ve started to have substantial populations of Bantu speakers.

wut

I was under the impression that the Coloured are Afrikaans-speaking Protestant Christians. If so, they're as culturally Khoisan as your average Mexican is Aztec.


A couple more pedantic nitpicks-
58 most of former North Vietnam was never part of Champa, but it was under Chinese rule for a thousand years or so
61 should be "stolen from the Khmer Empire by Tai invaders"
62 could also be "stolen from Thailand by the French"
