Answer
Marginalizing the nonwhite majority was a central aspect of Verwoerd's support for a republic. By establishing a republic, Verwoerd aimed to consolidate the political power of the white minority and further entrench the system of apartheid. This involved disenfranchising nonwhite citizens, restricting their political participation, and limiting their access to education, employment, and other opportunities.
