What was popularly known as the Boer War?

The Korean War
The Vietnam War
The South African War (1899-1902)
World War I

The correct answer is: The South African War (1899-1902)

The Boer War, also known as the South African War, was a military conflict fought between the British Empire and the two independent Boer republics in South Africa from 1899 to 1902. This war was not related to the Korean War, Vietnam War, or World War I. The Korean War was a conflict between North Korea, supported by China and the Soviet Union, and South Korea, supported by the United Nations. The Vietnam War was a prolonged conflict between communist North Vietnam and South Vietnam, supported by the United States and other anti-communist allies. World War I was a global war fought from 1914 to 1918, involving many of the world's major powers. None of these wars were called the Boer War. Therefore, the correct answer is C.
