nderstanding the journey of Mozambique is similar to watching a dear friend rebound from an bitter divorce. Like many African countries, Mozambique was colonized by the Portuguese from the early 1500's until it independence in 1975.   Even after its independence, this vivid and beautiful country underwent a brutal civil war that lasted nearly twenty years.  Just as a person tries to rebuild their lives after a bitter divorce,  Mozambique is currently redefining its place as a vibrant country and a transition to a multi-party democracy.
