  • The Democratic Republic of the Congo is not really democratic. Or a republic. In fact, it's in Africa, so it's probably not real at all. Don't worry. It doesn't really matter anyway. Stephen knows there isn't a war over there because no one talks about it. Truthiness has spoken.
  • The Democratic Republic of the Congo has a GDP per capita of only $348, and an HDI of 0.286. It has a life expectancy of 46.5 years. It also has the world's second highest rate of infant mortality, after Chad. 115.81 babies die out of 1000 live births. Congo-Kinshasa is a large country located at the center of Africa.

  • Although citizens of the DRC are among the poorest in the world, having the second lowest nominal GDP per capita, the Democratic Republic of Congo is widely considered to be the richest country in the world regarding natural resources; its untapped deposits of raw minerals are estimated to be worth in excess of US$ 24 trillion.
  • The name Democratic Republic of the Congo was adopted in 1997. The land was formerly, in chronological order, the Congo Free State, Belgian Congo, Congo-Léopoldville, Congo-Kinshasa, and Zaire. In most Harry Turtledove works, the DR Congo is still the Belgian Congo.
  • The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) is in Central Africa. Countries bordering DRC are Angola, Republic of the Congo, Central African Republic, Sudan, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Tanzania and Zambia.
  • Kalala made his debut for the Democratic Republic of Congo in 2002 and was a member of their squad for the 2004 and 2006 Africa Cup of Nations tournaments. He played only occasionally though, making just seven appearances in the four years up to his final cap in 2006.

  • Democratic Republic of the Congo (République démocratique du Congo in French) is the third largest country of Africa and it was formerly a Belgian colony - known as Zaire or Zaïre in French. Literally, Congo means a river, perhaps an apt description of the land and the people as traditionally hunting must be the main livelihood of the people. The word is derived from the Bakongo ethnic group, living in the Congo river basin. After gaining independence, it became the Republic of Congo. However, it changed its name to the Democratic Republic of (the) Congo to differentiate its name from the neighbouring country of the same name, Republic of Congo. The Democratic Republic of Congo shares its borders with the Central African Republic, Sudan, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Tanzania, Zambia, and Angol
  • The Democratic Republic of the Congo (French: République démocratique du Congo), also known as DR Congo, DRC, DROC, East Congo, Congo-Kinshasa, or simply the Congo is a country located in Central Africa. From 1971 to 1997 it was named, and is sometimes still called, Zaire, and from 1908 to 1960 it was called the Belgian Congo. The DRC borders the Central African Republic, and South Sudan to the north; Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi and Tanzania to the east; Zambia and Angola to the south; the Republic of the Congo to the west and the Atlantic Ocean to the southwest.

  • The Democratic Republic of the Congo (French: République démocratique du Congo), sometimes referred to as DR Congo, Congo-Kinshasa or the DRC, is a country located in Central Africa. It is the second largest country in Africa by area and the eleventh largest in the world.

  • Established as a Belgian colony in 1908, the Republic of the Congo gained its independence in 1960, but its early years were marred by political and social instability. Col. Joseph MOBUTU seized power and declared himself president in a November 1965 coup. He subsequently changed his name - to MOBUTU Sese Seko - as well as that of the country - to Zaire. MOBUTU retained his position for 32 years through several sham elections, as well as through brutal force. Ethnic strife and civil war, touched off by a massive inflow of refugees in 1994 from fighting in Rwanda and Burundi, led in May 1997 to the toppling of the MOBUTU regime by a rebellion backed by Rwanda and Uganda and fronted by Laurent KABILA. He renamed the country the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), but in August 1998 his r
  • The Democratic Republic Of Congo (or Zaire) is ruled by President Kaiba, who was elected in 2004 with a massive 96% of the popular vote (in Zaire). This was a very democratic election, with every male aged over 16 allowed to vote (or in Zaire). The opposition candidate waged a low-key campaign from an unmarked grave in the cellar of the Presidential Palace in Kinshasa. The reasoning for the 96% total from two votes is the current innumeracy rate, which stands at 126%. President Kaiba follows a fairly liberal policy (for the region) and has only executed 13,000,000 dissidents in the past month and a half. Vice President Mallaaaiaris is in overall charge of the military, but is generally loyal to his brother except for that time he tried to kill him. On November 27, 2006, he was confirmed as
  • The Democratic Republic of the Congo, often referred to as DR Congo, DRC or RDC, is the third largest country by area in Africa. Though it is located in the Central African UN subregion, the nation is economically and regionally affiliated with Southern Africa as a member of the Southern African Development Community (SADC). It borders the Central African Republic and Sudan on the north, Uganda, Rwanda, and Burundi on the east, Zambia and Angola on the south, the Republic of the Congo on the west, and is separated from Tanzania by Lake Tanganyika on the east. The country enjoys access to the ocean through a 40 kilometre (25 mile) stretch of Atlantic coastline at Muanda and the roughly nine-kilometre wide mouth of the Congo river which opens into the Gulf of Guinea.

Notes
  • * There are two countries named "the Congo", and they are often confused for eachother. To make it worse, there used to be three. Belgian Congo , French Congo , and Portugese Congo. It doesn't help that the DRC for a time was called "Republic of the Congo" as well. The term "African Congo" is sometimes used as well, and refers to the entire region of the Congo River. * The adventures of Tarzan traditionally take place in what would later become the Belgian Congo.

  • The Democratic Republic of the Congo (French: République démocratique du Congo), also known as DR Congo, DRC, DROC, East Congo, Congo-Kinshasa, or simply the Congo is a country located in Central Africa. From 1971 to 1997 it was named, and is sometimes still called, Zaire, and from 1908 to 1960 it was called the Belgian Congo. The DRC borders the Central African Republic, and South Sudan to the north; Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi and Tanzania to the east; Zambia and Angola to the south; the Republic of the Congo to the west and the Atlantic Ocean to the southwest. It is the second-largest country in Africa by area and eleventh largest in the world. With a population of over 80 million, the Democratic Republic of the Congo is the most populated officially Francophone country, the fourth most-populated nation in Africa and the eighteenth most populated country in the world.

Vice President Mallaaaiaris is in overall charge of the military, but is generally loyal to his brother except for that time he tried to kill him. On November 27, 2006, he was confirmed as the first Congolese President to be democratically elected by universal direct suffrage. Direct suffrage (or sufferage) is the amount people in the Congo that have suffered directly. Many immigrants from Ghana frequently visit the prosperous land of the Congo. They like to steal their crop and direct Red Cross lorries from the Congo to Ghana. The big fence does not stop the Ghanains from entering the Congo. Ghanaians are widely admired in Congo for their cleverness, as evidenced by their ability to do all of the above even though Ghana does not border Congo. The Presidential role has been threatened by a band of animals living in the jungles of The Democratic Republic Of Congo. They insist that the lion is "King Of The Jungle" and must therefore rule the entire country. President Kabila insists that the lion can only have a ceremonial role in the government, to maintain its democratic status.

Troops from Angola, Chad, Namibia, Sudan, and Zimbabwe intervened to support KABILA's regime. A cease-fire was signed in July 1999 by the DRC, Congolese armed rebel groups, Angola, Namibia, Rwanda, Uganda, and Zimbabwe but sporadic fighting continued. Laurent KABILA was assassinated in January 2001 and his son, Joseph KABILA, was named head of state. In October 2002, the new president was successful in negotiating the withdrawal of Rwandan forces occupying eastern Congo; two months later, the Pretoria Accord was signed by all remaining warring parties to end the fighting and establish a government of national unity. A transitional government was set up in July 2003. Joseph KABILA as president and four vice presidents represented the former government, former rebel groups, the political opposition, and civil society. The transitional government held a successful constitutional referendum in December 2005 and elections for the presidency, National Assembly, and provincial legislatures in 2006. The National Assembly was installed in September 2006 and KABILA was inaugurated president in December 2006. Provincial assemblies were constituted in early 2007, and elected governors and national senators in January 2007.
