The Democratic Front for the Liberation of Angola (FDLA) was a political movement in colonial Angola. FDLA was set-up as a parallel structure to MPLA, supported by the government of Congo-Brazzaville. FDLA later aligned itself with MPLA in the struggle against Portuguese colonial rule. Eventually the cadres of FDLA joined MPLA, and FDLA ceased its independent existence.
