Summary:A government formed by the Popular Movement for the Liberation of Angola - MPLA - was sworn-in in November. The Soviet-backed MPLA controls Luanda and much of the central area of Angola, but the now joint forces of the other factions - FNLA and UNITA - still hold two-thirds of the country. Meanwhile, young boys trained to defend Luanda are being used to support the army in battle.
