Cabinda


 * 1)** Cabinda is a coastal exclave of Angola with a deep water port at Malembo. It has an oil field that was discovered in 1968. The use of this oil field helped the commercial growth of the city of Cabinda. The city once had sovereignty under Portugese rule, but in 1975 a Cabindan nationalist movement attempted to declare its independence. This still remains an unresolved issue.
