Mozambique
Mozambique, officially the Republic of Mozambique, is a country located in Southeast Africa bordered by the Indian Ocean to the east, Tanzania to the north, Malawi and Zambia to the northwest, Zimbabwe to the west, and Eswatini and South Africa to the south and southwest. The sovereign state is separated from the Comoros, Mayotte, and Madagascar by the Mozambique Channel to the east. The capital and largest city is Maputo. Between the 7th and 11th centuries, a series of Swahili port towns developed on that area, which contributed to the development of a distinct Swahili culture and dialect. In the late medieval period, these towns were frequented by traders from Somalia, Ethiopia, Egypt, Arabia, Persia, and India. The voyage of Vasco da Gama in 1498 marked the arrival of the Portuguese Empire, Portuguese, who began a gradual process of colonisation and settlement in 1505.

Revolutionary Party Of Mozambique
The Revolutionary Party of Mozambique (PRM; ) was an armed rebel group in northern Mozambique during the Mozambican Civil War. Founded by Amos Sumane in 1974 or 1976, the PRM was strongly opposed to Mozambique's FRELIMO government and its communist ideology. The party waged a low-level insurgency in the provinces of Zambezia, Tete and Niassa from 1977. Sumane was captured in 1980 and executed by the Mozambican government in 1981. The PRM's leadership passed to Gimo Phiri under whom the party merged with another rebel group, RENAMO, in 1982. Etymology The Revolutionary Party of Mozambique was also known as ''Revolucionário de Forças Moçambique'' and ''África Livre'' ("Free Africa"). According to historian Sérgio Inácio Chichava, the PRM and ''África Livre'' were often conflated. The name ''África Livre'' originates from the radio station ''Voz da África Livre'' (Voice of Free Africa) created by the Rhodesian Central Intelligence Organisation to broadcast anti-FRELIMO pr ...

Mozambican Civil War
The Mozambican Civil War () was a civil war fought in Mozambique from 1977 to 1992 due to a combination of local strife and the polarizing effects of Cold War politics. The fighting was between Mozambique's ruling Marxist Front for the Liberation of Mozambique, Mozambique Liberation Front (FRELIMO), the Rhodesia backed anti-communist insurgent forces of the Mozambican National Resistance (RENAMO), and a number of smaller factions such as the Revolutionary Party of Mozambique, PRM, Mozambican National Union, UNAMO, Mozambique Revolutionary Committee, COREMO, Union of the Peoples of Mozambique, UNIPOMO, and Mozambique Democratic United Front, FUMO. RENAMO opposed FRELIMO's attempts to establish a Socialist state, socialist one-party state, and was heavily backed by the anti-communist governments of Rhodesia and South Africa who supported them in order to undermine FRELIMO's support for militant nationalist organisations in their own countries. Over one million Mozambicans were ki ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
