Much of the Nation was depopulated during the 27 year Civil War which claimed about 500,000 lives. It was once a major exporter of foods to the world and a great deal of the agricultural plains were planted into minefields by the belligerents which requires decades to clear and to be returned to production. The vinyards and orchards were destroyed, farm tools and equipment were misused and abused and the irrigation system that was essential was destroyed.
Today they export oil and search for diamonds. The vast majority of the food that is needed to feed the estimated 18.5 million residents must be imported and the oil sales are being used to rebuild the roads, destroyed schools and hospitals so that Angola can at least to where it was in 1975.

Yes, Angola is often considered a one-commodity country due to its heavy reliance on oil exports, which account for a significant portion of its GDP and government revenue. While the country has other natural resources, such as diamonds and minerals, oil dominates its economy. This dependence on a single commodity makes Angola vulnerable to fluctuations in global oil prices. Efforts to diversify the economy are ongoing, but challenges remain.
