History
Congo under Belgian rule In 1885, Belgium founded the Free State of the Congo, which was formally independent from it.

On November 15, 1908, the Free State of the Congo completely passes into the possession of Belgium and becomes its colony called Belgian Congo.

The main branch of the colony's economy was mining.

During the Second World War, after the occupation of Belgium by Nazi Germany, the influence of the United States and Great Britain in the Congo increased. After the war, trade unions, political parties and cultural and educational societies appeared in the Congo, proclaiming a course for the country's independence.

Independent Congo In 1960, the Belgian Congo declared independence from Belgium. The colony was named the "Democratic Republic of the Congo", but soon the country was seized by an acute political crisis and the separatist forces escalated.

On October 27, 1971, the state changed its name to the Republic of Zaire.

In 1996-1997, the Republic of Zaire was involved in the First Congolese War, at the end of which the country became known as the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
