Due to the distance between Luanda and Elmina, the capital of the Dutch Gold Coast, a separate administration for "Africa South" was established at Luanda during the period of the Dutch occupation.
Dikarenakan jauhnya jarak antara Luanda dan Elmina, ibukota Pantai Emas Belanda, pemerintahan tersendiri bagi "Selatan Afrika" didirikan di Luanda selama periode pendudukan Belanda.
