Concerning the independence of the Portuguese territories in Africa, I wrote a book “From Goa to Goa”, 2020, which focuses a little on the decolonisation of Mozambique and resettlement in Portugal. This is however, from a personal perspective. Carolina Costa Sent from my iPhone > On 2 May

The war in Africa lasted 13 years or, approximately, 4,750 days. Three soldiers killed per day would make 14,250 soldiers dead. In fact we had about 9,000 dead over the 13 years. When talking about delicate issues such as this one, one better be exact. Being 58% wrong seems to me a bit too much,
