Luanda is the capital of Angola, which is officially called the Republic of Angola. The official, and most often-spoken, language is Portuguese, due to the fact that it was a Portuguese territory from the mid 1500s until 1975, when it gained independence.After its independence, however, it remained in civil war from 1975 until 2002. It is both a diamond and oil producing country, and its life expectancy rates and infant mortality rates have been among the lowest in the world for decades.
