When did the battles of Paardeberg ('Horse Mountain') and Lillefontein take place?

1899
1900
1901
1902

The correct answer is: 1900

The battles of Paardeberg and Lillefontein took place during the Second Boer War, which lasted from 1899 to 1902. Option A, 1899, is incorrect because that marks the beginning of the war, before these particular battles took place. Option C, 1901, is also incorrect as this is after the battles of Paardeberg and Lillefontein took place. Option D, 1902, is too late as the war had already ended by then. Therefore, B, 1900, is the correct answer and marks the mid-point of the Second Boer War when these battles occurred.
