Kuito in Angola ANGOLA angola. kuito Informations and links Kuito Map Kuito Photos Kuito ------------------------------- Kuito is a city located in central Angola. It is the administrative capital of Bié Province. Its colonial name was Silva Porto. Kuito was under siege in 1993/94 and again in 1998/99 by the rebel forces from UNITA, but the government side won each time. Many buildings in Kuito are still heavily damaged as a result of these sieges. (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.) Civil war has been the norm in Angola since independence from Portugal in 1975. A 1994 peace accord between the government and the National Union for the Total Independence of Angola (UNITA) provided for the integration of former UNITA insurgents into the government and armed forces. A national unity government was installed in April of 1997, but serious fighting resumed in late 1998, rendering hundreds of thousands of people homeless. Up to 1.5 million lives may have been lost in fighting over the past quarter century. The death of insurgent leader Jonas SAVIMBI in 2002 and a subsequent cease-fire with UNITA may bode well for the country..
