	Angola - Government and Politics - BACKGROUND
		Political units in southwestern Africa evolved into complex structures long before the arrival of the first Portuguese traveler, Diogo C o, in 1483.
		Angola's liberation armies contested control of the new nation, and the coalition established by the Alvor Agreement in January 1975 quickly disintegrated.
		By the end of 1976, Angola was a member of the UN and was recognized by most other African states, but its domestic legitimacy remained in question.

		However, given that there is no set timetable for the return of electoral politics in Angola, President dos Santos could continue to be both head of state and chief of government indefinitely (President dos Santos dismissed his prime minister in 1998 and has yet to refill the post).
		Angola's factional politics are largely a legacy of the struggle for independence and the subsequent efforts of international and regional powers to control the political arena in this country in the post-colonial era.
		Three revolutionary organizations were involved in Angola's 14 year war for independence form Portugal (1961-75): (1) the People's Movement for the Liberation of Angola (MPLA), (2) the National Front for the Liberation of Angola (FNLA), and (3) the National Union for the Total Independence of Angola (UNITA).

	Angola - Salazar's Racial Politics
		Until 1940 Portuguese constituted less than 1 percent of Angola's population, and it was not until 1950 that their proportion approached 2 percent.
		This increase in the number of Europeans and the continuation of forced labor (not abolished until 1962) and other labor abuses led to an intensification of racial conflict.
		Political offenses brought severe penalties, and the colonial administration viewed African organizations with extreme disfavor.

	Angola - Government and Politics
		The strongest of the disenfranchised movements, the National Union for the Total Independence of Angola (União Nacional para a Independência Total de Angola -- UNITA), continued to battle for another thirteen years, shifting the focus of its opposition from the colonial power to the MPLA government.
		Angola's 1975 Constitution, revised in 1976 and 1980, ratifies the socialist revolution but also guarantees some rights of private ownership.
		His greatest obstacle, however, was the destabilizing effect of UNITA and its South African sponsors; Angola's role as a victim of South Africa's destructive regional policies was central to its international image during the 1980s.

		The large Cuban military presence came to symbolize both Angola's political autonomy from the West and the MPLA-PT's reliance on a Soviet client state to remain in power.
		Pretoria's goals in Angola were to eliminate SWAPO and ANC bases from Angolan territory, weaken MPLA-PT support for Pretoria's foes through a combination of direct assault and aid to UNITA, and reinforce regional dependence on South Africa's own extensive transportation system by closing down the Benguela Railway.
		The political ties of Angola and Mozambique to the Soviet Union also bolstered South Africa's determination to strengthen its security apparatus at home and provided a rationale for continued occupation of Namibia.

		The war, though, does not account for the lack of transparency, nor for the fact that, according to the Human Rights Watch report, the missing funds are roughly equal to what was spent in the same period, 1997 to 2002, on social programmes - $4.27 billion.
		It is the one refrain that is repeated by NGOs, UN officials, and donor countries, and has led to donor fatigue setting in.
