Angola

Angola is a nation in south Africa best known as the place where Ronald Reagan used to go in his nightmares. Following 450 years as a Portuguese territory of one kind or another (longer than anyone should ever have to put up with Portugal), Angola finally achieved independence in 1975. By "achieved independence," I mean Portugal just kind of buggered off and left the Angolans to spend the next 30 years or so massacring each other. It's true what they say: it's never a good sign when you've got a machete on your flag (although it does make for a badass flag). Incidentally, I used to know a guy named Frankie Angola in high school.

When reached for comment, Frankie claimed there was "no relation."
