Yes, the MPLA (Popular Movement for the Liberation of Angola) was able to gain control of Angola following a protracted civil war that lasted from 1975 to 2002. After Angola gained independence from Portugal in 1975, the MPLA emerged as the ruling party, supported by the Soviet Union and Cuba, while facing opposition from UNITA (National Union for the Total Independence of Angola) and other factions. The MPLA maintained its dominance through military and political means, ultimately solidifying its power and establishing a one-party state. Today, the MPLA remains the ruling party in Angola.
