Oando

Oando, also called Wandu, was a southeastern territory of the Kongo kingdom near the lands of Matamba and Mbwila. In the 1660s its duke sought to escape Kongo's authority. Forces from Matamba, acting for King António I of Kongo, defeated him; a later ruler also rebelled and fled towards Mbwila. The dispute formed part of the tensions that preceded the battle of Mbwila in 1665.
