Commentary
Découvert par l’explorateur Diogo Cão à la fin du XVe siècle, l’Angola deviendra progressivement une colonie portugaise. Ce n’est qu’en 1975 au terme d’une terrible guerre de libération que le pays deviendra indépendant..
Discovered by explorer Diogo Cão at the end of the 15th century, Angola gradually became a Portuguese colony. It was not until 1975, after a terrible war of liberation, that the country became independent.
