Since the 1990s brought an end to apartheid in South Africa the country has flourished under black majority rule. It is now considered the most well-developed country in Africa. South Africa enjoys an ample supply of natural resources that have helped support the country's economy, and by extension its financial, social, and legal infrastructures. South Africa still endures a high rate of unemployment as well as misallocation of resources to underrepresented groups -- a problem left over from the apartheid era -- but the country's policies center around addressing rather than hiding from whatever lingering issues the country faces. In this photo a young South African child enjoys the luxury of clean, fresh water.
