Answer

Mozambique gained independence in 1975 after a protracted armed struggle against Portuguese colonial rule. The country's independence was the culmination of a decade-long war that had begun in 1964 and had claimed the lives of thousands of Mozambicans. The independence of Mozambique marked a significant milestone in the history of African liberation movements and was a major blow to the Portuguese colonial empire.
