Etosha proclaimed Game Reserve No. 2 by the German colonial administration

node

Ordinance 88 of 1907 proclaimed a vast game reserve reaching from the Etosha pan to the Skeleton Coast, on the order of 80,000–100,000 km2 depending on the source. The proclamation was an act of colonial administration over territory whose resident populations were not consulted, and it set the precedent that wildlife protection in the region begins with a line drawn by a government over other people's land.

A node is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.
