Who am I?

Alechinsky untitled , 1990

It's back to where j'pense Carla, who never does anything to correct dates. As the holidays are still very much there, here's a riddle to solve in thongs, home or on the beach. Inspired by a blogger player, heading guessing you try to find a country. Here we go.

- I am a sovereign entity since the 18th century;
- I was alternately coveted by England, the USSR and the United States;
- My current regime is a presidential republic with a parliament bicameral
- My location on trade routes and my abundant natural resources makes me a major strategic issue. Major foreign oil companies are now installed on my land (BP, Total and Texaco, for example);
- I'm currently occupied by those who had helped the local resistance to undo the previous occupation (including their selling weapons).

Too easy! For those who are lost, additional clues:

- Between the current and previous occupation, a fundamentalist dictatorship was established by a group indigenous people called "students". Taking advantage of the outrage of public opinion before the ultra-reactionary regime that provided sanctuary to terrorists, western armies came to occupy my territory with the declared aim to deliver the people. The reactionary regime was overthrown in 2001. Since the soldiers camp liberators regularly kill my capita es.

now What suspense!
