For decades, Angola had been in a bloody civil war since independence from Portugal. Angola’s economy is still suffering from the consequences of this. More than half of the citizens are unemployed and almost three quarters live below the poverty line. In the Human Development Index of the United Nations Angola occupies one of the last places. Thanks to its mineral resources – primarily the oil and diamond deposits – the country has enjoyed a great economic boom in recent years. Angola’s economic growth is currently the greatest in Africa.

Angola: Luanda
6.7 million inhabitants were counted in Luanda. But the city is growing and growing and it is assumed that more than ten million people live in the city and the areas around it. Luanda is also one of the largest cities on the African continent. By the way, many people speak Portuguese here.
The region around the capital is very flat, the mountain landscapes only begin a little further south. The city is divided into an older part, in which buildings from the colonial era can also be discovered and which is located near the harbor, and a newer part, which continues to grow. The capital is also the economic center of the country, as there is also an important port here.
