More about Mozambique
Mozambique, Mozambique [Mosam b ɪ k, Portuguese musam bikə], Mozambique [Moza bik, French], officially Portuguese República de Moçambique, state in southeast Africa, the Indian Ocean, with (2018) 29.5 million residents; The capital is Maputo.
Economy
Despite its wealth of raw materials, Mozambique is one of the poorest countries in the world. After the civil war (1976-92), which largely devastated the country, and years of socialist planned economy, Mozambique made an economic fresh start in the early 1990s. However, the first successes were partly destroyed by the flood disaster of 2000/01. Mozambique is still dependent on development aid in 2019.
Most of the residents are employed in agriculture and grow cassava, corn and millet for their own use. There are also large farms owned by the state or foreigners. Above all, tobacco, cashew nuts and sugar cane are grown there for export. Many people live from fishing on the long coast. Shrimp are an important export product. Mozambique is rich in energy resources such as natural gas and hydropower. The important aluminum industry at Maputo consumes some of the energy. Another part is exported to the Republic of South Africa. Mozambique is an important transit country for its neighbors, Malawi, Zambia, Zimbabwe and Eswatini, which are cut off from the sea. For the future, the country has high hopes for the expansion of trade and transport. At the same time, they want to attract more foreign tourists and inspire them for the beauty of the country.
History
From the 8th century AD, Arab and Persian merchants founded several large trading towns on the coast. In 1498 Vasco da Gama reached the coast of Mozambique. Portuguese invaded the country from the 16th century and made it a Portuguese colony in 1752. They engaged in an intensive slave trade, which was officially banned in 1869. In the 1960s, the guerrilla movement FRELIMO and other groups started a war of liberation and in 1975 won Mozambique’s independence. FRELIMO took power and established a communist regime.
A year later there was a long and bloody civil war between FRELIMO and the resistance group RENAMO, which was supported by South Africa. In 1990 the government broke away from communism and passed a new democratic constitution. The civil war lasted until 1992. Millions of people were killed or fled. After the peace agreement (1992), the first free elections could take place in October 1994. The winner was FRELIMO, which remains in power to this day and provides the president. The RENAMO is the largest opposition party. Their continued resistance to the government has repeatedly led to violent clashes.
Culture
The struggle for independence and the longstanding civil war have shaped the cultural development in Mozambique. Mozambican literature did not emerge until the middle of the 20th century. Important topics here are everyday life in Africa and criticism of social structures. The Swedish writer Henning Mankell (* 1948, † 2015 ) lived in Mozambique for a long time. In his youth novel “The Secret of Fire” (1995) he describes the life of the girl Sofia after the civil war.
Theaters are very popular in Mozambique. Plays are not only performed in fixed theater buildings, but also in moving street theaters. Mozambique is known in the film industry for its documentaries.
The masks and wooden figures of the Makonde people are elaborate carvings and coveted as tourist souvenirs. Traditionally, rhythmic music and dance are the focus of Mozambican cultural life. The marrabenta is a form of Mozambican dance music. Jazz and hip-hop predominate in pop music. The singer Zaida Chongo (* 1970, † 2004 ) was a well-known pop star in Mozambique.
By far the most popular sport is football. The Portuguese soccer star Eusébio (* 1942, † 2014 ) was born in Mozambique. Mozambique achieved the greatest sporting success in athletics. Middle-distance runner Maria Mutola (* 1972 ) won the first and so far only Olympic gold medal for Mozambique.
