Typical historic Kreo (Creole) house in Sierra Leone's capital of Freetown, founded by freed slaves of the transatlantic slave trade, many coming from the USA and the Caribbean.  The houses are stylistically similar to houses of the same period in the American South and the Caribbean. Sadly, in spite of their historic value, they are not well looking after.  They were built roughly between 1800 and 1900. Photos taken in August 2018

Luena (Luso), Moxico province, Angola: Moxico Provincial Government headquarters, Portuguese colonial building in 'Estado Novo' architecture style - Moxico is the largest province in Angola, almost as big as Romania. Moxico located in the eastern part of the country and bordered by Zambia to the east. It is characterized by vast, sparsely populated landscapes dominated by dense forests, savannas, and numerous rivers, including the Zambezi, which originates in the province. Moxico's economy is largely driven by agriculture, forestry, and fishing, with the province's rich natural resources offering potential for development. Despite its size, Moxico remains one of Angola's less developed regions, with infrastructure challenges that have been exacerbated by the legacy of the civil war. The province is home to a diverse population with various ethnic groups, each maintaining distinct cultural practices and languages. Moxico also has significant ecological importance, with protected areas that are home to diverse wildlife, contributing to conservation efforts in Angola.
