Hij noemde de baai <i>O Golfo de Santa Maria da Conceição</i>. De Portugezen deden verder geen moeite om de baai voor zich te behouden. </p><p>In 1793 namen de Nederlandse autoriteiten van de <a href="/wiki/Kaapkolonie" title="Kaapkolonie">Kaapkolonie</a> bezit van Walvisbaai. In 1878 eisten de Britten het op. Tijdens de <a href="/wiki/Koloniale_Conferentie_van_Berlijn" title="Koloniale Conferentie van Berlijn">Conferentie van Berlijn</a> (1884-'85) werd Walvisbaai erkend als Britse <a href="/wiki/Enclave" title="Enclave">enclave</a> in de Duitse kolonie <a href="/wiki/Duits-Zuidwest-Afrika" title="Duits-Zuidwest-Afrika">Duits-Zuidwest-Afrika</a>. </p><p>In 1910 ging Walvisbaai samen met de Kaapkolonie op in de <a href="/wiki/Unie_van_Zuid-Afrika" title="Unie van Zuid-Afrika">Unie van Zuid-Afrika</a>, een zelfbesturend deel van het Britse Rijk. In 1911 werden met Duitsland de precieze grenzen van de enclave bepaald. Het gebied besloeg een oppervlakte van 1124 km² tussen de riviermondingen van de <a href="/wiki/Swakop" title="Swakop">Swakop</a> en de <a href="/wiki/Kuiseb" title="Kuiseb">Kuiseb</a>. </p><p>Na het uitbreken van de Eerste Wereldoorlog namen Zuid-Afrikaanse troepen de macht over in Namibië en vormde Walvisbaai onderdeel van het door Zuid-Afrika geregeerde <a href="/wiki/Zuidwest-Afrika" title="Zuidwest-Afrika">Zuidwest-Afrika</a>. Na de onafhankelijkheid van Namibië in 1990 behoorde de enclave nog tot en met 28 februari 1994 tot Zuid-Afrika. Per 1 maart 1994 is de enclave opgegaan in Namibië. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Geboren">Geboren</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Walvisbaai&veaction=edit&section=2" title="Bewerk dit kopje: Geboren" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>bewerken</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Walvisbaai&action=edit&section=2" title="De broncode bewerken van de sectie: Geboren"><span>brontekst bewerken</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Alexei_Kervezee" title="Alexei Kervezee">Alexei Kervezee</a> (1989), Nederlands cricketspeler</li></ul> <div class="toccolours appendix" role="presentation" style="font-size:90%; margin:1em 0 -0.5em; clear:both;"> <div><span style="font-weight:bold">Bronnen, noten en/of referenties</span></div> <div class="reflist" style="list-style-type: decimal;"><div class="mw-references-wrap"><ol class="references"> <li id="cite_note-1"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><a href="#cite_ref-1">↑</a></span> <span class="reference-text"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.gov.na/documents/10180/34849/2011_Preliminary_Result.pdf/0ea026d4-9687-4851-a693-1b97a1317c60">Government of Namibia, Census 2011, <i>Preliminary Result</i> (p. 58).</a></span> </li> </ol></div></div> </div> <div class="interProject commons mw-list-item" style="display:none;"><a href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Walvis_Bay" class="extiw" title="commons:Walvis Bay">Mediabestanden</a></div> <div class="interProjectTemplate interProject-groot toccolours" style="display:flex; gap:1em; align-items:center; clear:both; margin:1em 0 -0.5em 0;"> <div style="min-width:max-content;"><span class="noviewer noresize" typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/Bestand:Commons-logo.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4a/Commons-logo.svg/25px-Commons-logo.svg.png" decoding="async" width="25" height="34" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4a/Commons-logo.svg/38px-Commons-logo.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4a/Commons-logo.svg/50px-Commons-logo.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="1024" data-file-height="1376" /></a></span></div> <div>Mediabestanden die bij dit onderwerp horen, zijn te vinden op de pagina <i><b><a href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Walvis_Bay" class="extiw" title="commons:Walvis Bay">Walvis Bay</a></b></i> op <a href="/wiki/Wikimedia_Commons" title="Wikimedia Commons">Wikimedia Commons</a>.</div> </div> <p class="mw-empty-elt"> </p>    </div><noscript><img src="https://login.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:CentralAutoLogin/start?type=1x1&useformat=desktop" alt="" width="1" height="1" style="border: none; position: absolute;"></noscript> <div class="printfooter" data-nosnippet="">Overgenomen van "<a dir="ltr" href="https://nl.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Walvisbaai&oldid=66017470">https://nl.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Walvisbaai&oldid=66017470</a>"</div></div> <div id="catlinks" class="catlinks" data-mw="interface"><div id="mw-normal-catlinks" class="mw-normal-catlinks"><a href="/wiki/Categorie:Alles" title="Categorie:Alles">Categorieën</a>: <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Categorie:Stad_in_Namibi%C3%AB" title="Categorie:Stad in Namibië">Stad in Namibië</a></li><li><a href="/wiki/Categorie:Geschiedenis_van_de_Kaap" title="Categorie:Geschiedenis van de Kaap">Geschiedenis van de Kaap</a></li><li><a href="/wiki/Categorie:Historische_enclave" title="Categorie:Historische enclave">Historische enclave</a></li><li><a href="/wiki/Categorie:Historische_exclave" title="Categorie:Historische exclave">Historische exclave</a></li></ul></div><div id="mw-hidden-catlinks" class="mw-hidden-catlinks mw-hidden-cats-hidden">Verborgen categorie: <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Categorie:Wikipedia:Co%C3%B6rdinaten_op_Wikidata" title="Categorie:Wikipedia:Coördinaten op Wikidata">Wikipedia:Coördinaten op Wikidata</a></li></ul></div></div> </div> </main> </div> <div class="mw-footer-container"> <footer id="footer" class="mw-footer" > <ul id="footer-info"> <li id="footer-info-lastmod"> Deze pagina is voor het laatst bewerkt op 19 sep 2023 om 17:27.</li> <li id="footer-info-copyright">De tekst is beschikbaar onder de licentie <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="//creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/deed.nl">Creative Commons Naamsvermelding/Gelijk delen</a>, er kunnen aanvullende voorwaarden van toepassing zijn.
