Emotive and POV

[edit]

The reference to "the Apartheid state" is, I would suggest, both emotive and POV. It is like referring to the USA as "the Democratic state". Before anyone suggests that apartheid is in a different league, I note that Encyclopaedia Britannia customarily refers to 1930's Germany as "Germany", and Communist-era Russia as "the Soviet Union", not "the Nazi state" or "Nazi Germany", or to the "Communist state", and those countries are in a different league to both the USA and South Africa.Royalcourtier (talk) 03:12, 11 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
