“Because the elimination of Africans was not an option in Rhodesia, where settlers never accounted for more than 5 percent of the population (Hughes 2010; Brownell 2011), the policy adopted was one of eviction (through displacement and confinement) and exploitation (Veracini 2007).”

“As a general tendency, the Europeans ’ agenda was to minimise Africans ’ access to the lake (for example, through establishing isolated fi shing camps) as they tried to turn the entire littoral into a space for “ white men ” (Hughes, 2010; Mashingaidze, 2022).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
