Angola and the United States

What are the differences between Angola and the United States? They both have big differences some similarities exist, in some ways. I am from Angola, and I came to the United States to graduate. Angola is very different from the United States.

First difference is educational Angola does not have the same educational and teaching conditions as the US, but there have good graduated people. Depend how is students major, if they want graduate in law, they can graduate there.If they want computer engineer, you can graduate, but it is poorer in high technology. Many people from Angola came to the United States to study or start a new life in such a different ethnic culture.

Second is climate is so different between both country. Angola has a tropical climate is not hot like some states in the US. The climate in Angola varies considerably from the coast to the central plateau and even between the north coast and the south coast. The north, from Cabinda to Ambriz, has a damp, tropical climate. The zones that begin a little to the north of Luanda and extend to Namibe, the Malanje region, and the eastern strip have a moderate tropical climate. The climate in the US northern eastern parts of US experience harsh winters with heavy snowfall, but the summers are pleasant. The southern western part has extremely hot summers and comparatively tolerable winters.

Another difference is the size the US is bigger than Angola the US has fifty states, and Angola has eighteen states it is a big difference. Angola has a coastline on the South Atlantic Ocean. Comparatively, the area is slightly less than twice the size of Texas. The US takes up a significant portion the continent, so most Americans have visited only a few of the fifty states.

Finally the relationship between began in 1993 after independence of Angola. How do the US and Angola relationship? Angola is a country rich in resources. In north there is a lot of oil. They think that one country helps another this is very important, and Angola has diamonds, oil, copper, and others resources. America has high technology and they are fundamental to help Angola in economic and social political problems because the US had its independence much earlier than Angola. Although Angola and the United States are on different continent, and they have different culture, size, and climate, they have a good economic and social relationship despite differences.
