Cabinda Province

Angola

Cabinda Province carries 53 connections with 4164 other places across 13 topics, shaped by its petroleum economy, colonial history, and armed separatism. Petroleum exploration began in 1954 and now dominates Cabinda's domestic economy. The 1885 Treaty of Simulambuco established the territory as a Portuguese protectorate; independence movements have contested Angolan authority ever since. FLEC mounted a guerrilla campaign through the 1970s and 1980s, targeting oil and construction operations. Its strongest co-connected places are France, Angola, and Portugal.
