Geography

It is limited to the west with the urban district of Maianga, to the north with the urban district of Rangel and the municipality of Cazenga, to the east the municipality of Viana and to the south with the municipality of Talatona. It is only the commune, which is subdivided into the urban districts of Golfe, Palanca, Vila Estoril and Sapú.

In 2011, due to administrative reform, it was classified as Luanda's urban district, but in 2016 it regained the status of municipality.

Nowadays, humans have somewhat easier access to chemical stuff and can probably get away with making bombs or whatever, while some control advanced weapons systems, and theoretically Trump and others have access to nukes.Also, I think on-demand commercial DNA printing is a thing now and with a few decades more development and some biology knowledge you could probably print smallpox or something?
gollark: You probably want to be able to improvise and stuff for emergencies, like in The Martian, and obviously need to be good at repair, but mostly those don't happen much.
