In the case of Guinea-Bissau and Cape Verde, which won their independence through armed struggle in the forest of "Portuguese" Guinea from 1963 to 1974, the post independence period has been orderly with the sole exception of a relatively bloodless coup in Bissau in 1980.
Cape Verde has also carried out an ambitious foreign policy of good neighbors in fishing and maritime agreements, new friends around the world, as well as a positive role on the UN Security Council in matters from Rwandan refugees to Angolan elections.
Despite the political pundits, Cape Verde has become a graveyard of electoral prophecies which had predicted a very tight race and a likely weak coalition government would be formed; this has simply not been the case.

Cape Verde is a multiparty parliamentary democracy in which constitutional powers are shared between the elected Head of State, President Antonio Mascarenhas Monteiro, an independent; the Head of Government, Prime Minister Carlos Wahnon Veiga; and Veiga's party, the Movement for Democracy (MPD).
The principal opposition party, the African Party for the Independence of Cape Verde (PAICV), held power in a one-party state from independence in 1975 until 1991.
