The country is still the ancestral homeland for over 200 ethnic groups, most descended from individual kingdoms established long before the Europeans arrived in the late 1800s. Commissioned by King Leopold II of Belgium, Henry Stanley was the first European to explore the Congo Basin area. Upon hearing Stanley's report regarding the indigenous natural attributes of the land, King Leopold subsequently took control, imposing a system of force labor that was the catalyst for the first human rights movement in the 20th century. He was forced to grant colonial status to the then Belgium Congo in 1908. After gaining independence from Belgium in 1960, a non-stop parade of assassinations, civil wars, coups, corrupt dictators, brutal murders, rebellions and needless bloodshed plagued the land. http://www.worldatlas.com/webimage/countrys/africa/cd.htm The independent Republic of the Congo was proclaimed in Léopoldville on June 30, 1960, by King Baudouin I of the Belgians. http://www.cartage.org.lb/en/themes/GeogHist/histories/history/hiscountries/C/congo.html The capital and largest city of Zaire is Kinshasa, formerly Léopoldville. In the midst of the chaos, on 30 June 1960, the Democratic Republic of the Congo came into being under its first, hastily elected prime minister, Patrice Lumumba, and its first head of state, President Joseph Kasavubu. Belgium's King Baudouin came to Léopoldville for the event and delivered a stupid, self-congratulatory speech that provoked an angry reply from the new prime minister. " Nous ne sommes plus vos singes, " Lumumba thundered, " We are not your monkeys any more! " The royal entourage departed in a huff. Lumumba, elated by the electrifying effect of his words on the restive population, played to the crowds and at times even seemed to encourage attacks on Europeans and their property. http://worldatwar.net/chandelle/v2/v2n3/congo.html The writing was clearly on the wall, and Belgium had to play ball. Lumumba was immediately released and flown to Brussels to join his colleagues at the conference which demanded that 1 June 1960 be fixed as Congo's independence day. Belgium agreed with a little amendment: independence day would be 30 June. http://www.africasia.com/newafrican/feb00/nacs0202.htm La proclamation de l’indépendance, ce jeudi 30 juin 1960, a donné lieu à une séance d’une extraordinaire intensité dramatique... Après le discours de Lumumba, 11 heures 50, le traité de l’indépendance est signé sous les applaudissements de la salle.Le Roi, accompagné de M. Kasa-Vubu, se dirige vers la sortie de l’hémicycle sous les cris de “Vive le Roi”. La cérémonie de l’indépendance est terminée. http://www.digitalcongo.net/fullstory.php?id=25483 Disaster Date Killed Epidemic Dec-2002 2,000 Epidemic 27-Nov-2002 593 Epidemic 1-Nov-2001 502 Epidemic Mar-1991 500 Epidemic Sep-1987 450 Epidemic Jan-1998 386 Epidemic Jun-2003 380 Epidemic Feb-2004 300 Epidemic 18-Dec-1997 270 Epidemic Sep-1976 245 Disaster Date Affected Drought 20-Jan-1979 500,000 Epidemic Dec-2002 500,000 Volcano 17-Jan-2002 110,400 Flood 30-Nov-1999 78,000 Volcano 10-Jan-1977 60,000 Flood 31-Dec-1997 35,506 Flood 20-May-1990 27,500 Wind Storm 2-Feb-2003 22,500 Epidemic Jun-2003 13,072 Disaster Date Killed Transport Accident 8-Jan-1996 422 Transport Accident Jul-1987 398 Transport Accident 2-Sep-1998 200 Transport Accident 1-Feb-2004 200 Transport Accident 25-Nov-2003 185 Transport Accident 8-May-2003 140 Transport Accident 2-Jul-1987 125 Misc Accident 14-Apr-2000 109 Industrial Accident 10-Mar-2001 70 Transport Accident 10-Oct-2004 68 Disaster Date Affected Transport Accident 7-Apr-1996 30 Transport Accident 6-Apr-2000 17 Date type registration operator fat. location pic cat 19-JUL-1960 Fairchild C-119 CP-36 Belgian AF 37 D.R.
