Some history of Angola

Angola, the Republic of Angola, is a country in southwestern Africa. Angola is a name that comes from a Kimbundu word for king or N’gola. The capital in the city being Luanda coming from Portuguese and being the country’s commercial center. Starting in the 15th century interest from Portuguese colonist grew and trading and settlement took place. Angola was founded by the Portuguese and still is the recognized language of the nation.

Portuguese explorer Paulo Dias de Novais founded Angola in the beginning of 16th century with a very large grouping of families of colonists and close to four hundred soldiers. Luanda was allowed the status of city in 1605. The King of the Kongo changed and adopted Christianity and a similar political structure to the Europeans. The king became a popular figure in Europe, and even received letters from the Pope.

After which the Dutch because of the Portuguese Restoration war possessed Angola for a short period from 1641 to 1648. Portugal took possession of territories in the area which were ruled as a colony from 1655 onward.  Angola is well known for diamonds and oil.
