  • Референдум по независимости Южной Родезии проводился 5 ноября 1964 года. Избиратели должны были одобрить объявление Южной Родезией независимости. В результате референдума подавляющее большинство (более 90%) высказалось за независимость при явке 61,9%. На следующий год правительство Яна Смита в односторонним порядке объявило о независимости Южной Родезии от Великобритании. Страна стала называться Родезия и просуществовала до 1979 года, однако она так и не была признана международным сообществом. (ru)

  • A referendum on independence was held in Rhodesia on 5 November 1964.

The following year, Smith's government made a Unilateral Declaration of Independence, making the country a de facto independent state until returning to British colonial rule in 1979 following the Lancaster House Agreement. The British Government did not accept Rhodesian independence as they did not view the referendum as representative of all of Rhodesia. Voter turnout was 62%. (en)
