The dutch lost the cape of good hope to the british africans french boers

The Dutch lost the Cape of Good Hope to the British.

The Cape remained under Dutch control until the 1780s, when the Netherlands fought in the War of Independence of the United States and in the wars of the French Revolution and the Napoleonic era, together with France against the United Kingdom. As a result, the British invaded the Cape of Good Hope in 1795, at the Battle of Muizenberg. Under the terms of a peace agreement negotiated after the war, the Cape was returned to Netherlands in 1803. The war resumed later that year and British forces reoccupied the Cape, winning the Battle of Blaauwberg in 1806. In the 1814 peace treaty that ended the war in Europe, the Cape was permanently incorporated into the British Empire.

i believe the answer is:

-   william jennings bryan is a democrat while mckinley was a republican

at that time, the segment of population that choose for democratic party were the voters with low economic background and vice versa

- william jennings has support of populists and wants to have inflation to farmers while mckinley has support of bankers and businessmen , doesn't want inflation

the fixed value of gold make the large business able to stack up their gold without   being worried that it would devaluated.

- william jennings supported the silver standard while mckinley supported the gold standard

according to jenning, using other metal beside gold could the poor people to have more purchasing power and them advance in the society.
