位於非洲西南部，曾被葡萄牙殖民統治500多年。於1975年獨立後，國內爆發安哥拉內戰，共產勢力的安人運對上反共勢力安盟（皆為簡稱），所以也被視為冷戰時期的美蘇代理人戰爭。這場內戰打了27年，超過80萬人死亡，直到2002年雙方才簽訂停火協定。勝利一方為安人運，但此時的安人運也已經放棄共產主義，現為普通政黨，國家走入民主。

Year Founded: 1975

Angola is situated along the west coast of Southern Africa. It was colonized by Portugal for more than 500 years. After its independence in 1975, the Angolan Civil War broke out between the MPLA and UNITA. It was seen as a proxy war between the Soviet Union and the United States during the Cold War. The civil war lasted for 27 years. More than 800,000 people were killed. It wasn’t until 2002 that the two parties signed a ceasefire agreement. The MPLA won the war, but they decided to reject communism. Now the MPLA is just a political party and the country is a democracy.
