The Wind That Shakes the Barley (2006)

Actors

Plot
In 1920, rural Ireland is the vicious battlefield of republican rebels against the British security forces and Irish Unionist population who oppose them, a recipe for mutual cruelty. Medical graduate Damien O'Donovan always gave priority to his socialist ideals and simply helping people in need. Just when he's leaving Ireland to work in a highly reputed London hospital, witnessing gross abuse of commoners changes his mind. he returns and joins the local IRA brigade, commanded by his brother Teddy, and adopts the merciless logic of civil war, while Teddy mellows by experiencing first-hand endless suffering. When IRA leaders negotiate an autonomous Free State under the British crown, Teddy defends the pragmatic best possible deal at this stage. Damien however joins the large seceding faction which holds nothing less then a socialist republic will do. The result is another civil war, bloodily opposing former Irish comrades in arms, even the brothers.

War in the Central African Republic (Full Length)

Order: Reorder
Duration: 42:09
Updated: 25 Mar 2014

Subscribe to VICE News here: http://bit.ly/Subscribe-to-VICE-News The Central African Republic's capital of Bangui has seen its Muslim population drop from 130,000 to under 1000 over the past few months. Over the past year, thousands across CAR have been killed and nearly a million have been displaced. The United Nations recently stated that the entire Western half of the country has now been cleansed of Muslims. CAR has never fully recovered from France's colonial rule, and it has only known ten years of a civilian government - from 1993 to 2003 - since achieving independence in 1960. Coup after coup, often with French military involvement, has led many to refer to the country as a phantom state. The current conflict has now completely erased the rule of law and order, and left the UN and international community looking confused and impotent. In March 2013, the Séléka, a mostly Muslim rebel alliance, rose up and overthrew the corrupt government of François Bozizé, while bringing terror and chaos across the country - pillaging, killing and raping with impunity. In response, mostly Christian self-defense forces, called the anti-balaka, formed to defend CAR against Séléka attacks. Clashes grew more frequent throughout 2013 as the Séléka grew more ruthless. In December 2013, French and African troops went in to disarm the Séléka and staunch the bloodshed. The anti-balaka, seizing on a weakened Séléka, then went on the offensive. CAR had no real history of religious violence, and the current conflict is not based on any religious ideology. The fighting, however, turned increasingly sectarian in the fall of 2013, with revenge killings becoming the norm. And as the Séléka's power waned, the anti-balaka fed their need for revenge by brutalizing Muslim civilians. "Too few peacekeepers were deployed too late; the challenge of disarming the Séléka, containing the anti-balaka, and protecting the Muslim minority was underestimated," Human Rights Watch said in a recent statement. The bloodshed has not stopped. The UN is still debating whether or not to send peacekeepers. Even if a peacekeeping operation is approved, it will take six months for troops to be assembled.

The Democratic Republic of Congo's Rape Problem

Order: Reorder
Duration: 22:12
Updated: 29 Apr 2013

Rape City (2013): Examining the terrible rape problem that afflicts the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) At least 200,000 people have been raped in DRC since 1996. With devastating frankness National Army soldiers confess to raping women and children in the towns they were supposed to be protecting from rebels. For downloads and more information visit: http://journey.webbler.co.uk/?lid=65206 "Raping gave us a lot of pleasure. When we rape we feel free", confesses a Congolese National Army soldier. He admits to raping 53 women and children, some as young as 5 years old. In this endemic cycle of violence, children born of rape are getting raped. According to Ida Sawyer from Human Rights Watch, the army commanders responsible for these horrific abuses are not brought to justice; instead they are often "rewarded and given positions of power and wealth". Efforts are being made to address this state of impunity; those in charge "must be pursued on a criminal level for these serious crimes", says the Military Prosecutor of North Kivu. But with the judicial system mostly fractured and forgotten, the only ones bearing the consequences are the victims. Their faith in the country has plummeted; as one victim says, "our army has looted and raped their own people. Our life in Congo has no meaning". This report was made with the support of the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting.

Part 2:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3LI6GIzrn4s Every day, some 2,000 people are killed globally as a result of armed violence, while the lives of thousands more are destroyed due to the scourge. Africa is the world’s biggest victim of the trade of arms, such as rocket-propelled grenades, mortars and Kalashnikov rifles. The black continent suffers not only in human terms, but also economically. Oxfam estimates that, between 1990 and 2006, Africa lost 284 billion dollars as a result of armed conflicts. After decades of global campaigning by such organizations as Amnesty International and Oxfam, the UN Arms Trade Treaty finally came into force on December 24, 2014. So far, over 130 states have signed the Treaty and 61 have ratified it. It could mean an end to the flood of weapons into countries like South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, even though neither of them has signed it. But, while some of the world’s biggest arms exporters like the UK and France have ratified the Treaty, turning it into domestic law, others such as the US have not. And some campaigners say the Treaty is so loosely worded that both governments and arms dealers will be able to get around it. In this edition of Africa Today, we will discuss the issue of arms control in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and ask how effective the new UN Arms Trade Treaty will be.

I have compiled a list of the top 20 + world's fastest growing economies highest by looking at a projected annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2014 through 2017, possibly also beyond that. This is based on the forecasts of the IMF's global economic prospects. Take into account that the world's fastest growing economies aren't typically the world's richest countries, whether by GDP Nominal, GDP Per Capita or GDP Purchasing Power Parity. Truth be told that much of these countries are among the most unequal societies in the world where populations suffer for high income inequality, political instability, corruption, bad governance and human rights abuses and other values that the West takes for granted nowadays. However in the developed world it is necessary to actually go out and invent whatever it is which is going to bring on the economic growth. When an economy is within that technological envelope of what has already been invented then that invention doesn’t need to happen: all that is necessary is the implementation. This doesn’t mean that growth is easy, only that catch up growth is easier. It is expected that poorer place to grow more quickly. The end result of this is something called “convergence”, where the poorer countries catch up with the rich ones. Another thing to take into account is that emerging economies are expected to grow two to three times faster than developed nations like the US, Germany, Sweden, Canada, Japan, France, Italy, Australia, New Zealand and so on, according to International Monetary Fund estimates. This growth narrative is important for Main Street investors who are not clued in on the big Wall Street long bull trends. The public investor is still underweight emerging markets in their portfolios. Yet, corporate profits tend to grow faster when economic growth is higher. One of the reasons why US companies have done so well in the last 12 months is because of growth in their non-US markets. Another benefit for investors is the diversification the EMs provide, because they tend to perform differently than developed markets, and have been successful at decoupling from the greater, longer term woes of the mature economies of the West. There are also more and more people in much of those countries who are lifting themselves above poverty and reaching the middle class. Other emerging countries worth investing in are: Cambodia, Hungary, Slovakia, Argentina, Costa Rica, Mongolia, Croatia, Namibia, Tunisia, Morocco, Algeria, Ivory Coast, South Africa, Botswana, Serbia, FYR Macedonia, Vietnam and Sir Lanka.

SOUTH AFRICA: HELP OFFERED TO REBUILD ECONOMY OF NEW CONGO STATE

Order: Reorder
Duration: 2:00
Updated: 21 Jul 2015

English/Nat South Africa is preparing to help the Democratic Republic of Congo rebuild its devastated economy. But Deputy President Thabo Mbeki warned on Thursday that an international effort would be needed to tackle the country's "fundamental problems". And one Johannesburg company is already flying the flag for the new state -- quite literally. APTV reports on the profit from sweeping change in the former Zaire. In a suburb of Johannesburg, this company is already reaping the benefits from the sudden political upheaval in the former Zaire. Staff at the factory are busy working to meet the demand for the new Democratic Republic of Congo's flag. A U-N spokesman confirmed this week President Kabila's wish for the national flag to revert to the one used when the former Belgian colony was granted independence in June 1960. The old Congo flag being made in South Africa is a blue field bearing a yellow star in the upper left corner and a yellow-bordered red stripe running from the lower left corner to the upper right corner. Orders for the new flag have even come from the former Zairean embassy. SOUNDBITE: (English) "We have had people from the new embassy or what was the Zairean embassy, now the embassy of the Democratic Republic of Congo buying the flag. So we are pretty convinced that this will be the flag." SUPER CAPTION: Mike Clingman, National Flags The first batch of 100 flags went on sale in South Africa this week, and orders are expected to keep coming in. Independent Congo's first flag -- displayed by Kabila's rebels since the early stages of their guerrilla campaign -- is mainly blue and yellow. It has one large star in the centre and six smaller stars representing its six original provinces. As the new government is set up, South Africa has formed a working group to look at what kind of help can be offered to the new Democratic Republic of Congo. South Africa, which spear headed the peace efforts between the two sides, is now hinting at a key role in establishing stability in the region. But Deputy Foreign Affairs Minister Aziz Pahad, addressing reporters on Thursday, said any aid would have to be part of an international effort. SOUNDBITE: (English) "We will consider sending some experts to the Democratic Republic of Congo to see and discuss with them the nature of their problems and see what can be done. But South Africa on its own cannot help solve the very fundamental problems of the Democratic Republic of Congo. It has to be a multinational effort." SUPER CAPTION: Aziz Pahad, South African Deputy Foreign Affairs Minister In the new Democratic Republic of Congo, the country's new leader, Laurent Kabila, has consolidated his power by scrapping the post of prime minister. But rather than winning sympathy from the West, such actions could re-ignite fears of a new era in strongman dictatorship in Africa.

During the recent Mining Indaba held in Cape Town, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), waved the green flag for business, re-iterating its commitment to enabling global investment in the Congo's lucrative mining sector. This occurred against the backdrop of rising volatility in South Africa's mining sector, our enlarged economic footprint in the DRC and the Congo's grim history of conflict moulded by a relentless scramble for the country's enormous mineral wealth by nations united by greed. The green flag is certainly being waved. But in the business of mining, green still signifies the colour of money. And whether through brutal proxy wars or corrupt, clandestine mining deals, the world, including South Africa, wants a piece of the DRC.

2015 Doing Business Report - Trinidad and Tobago Results

Order: Reorder
Duration: 2:11
Updated: 17 Nov 2014

MEDIA RELEASE:- "Rolling out the red carpet for investors … Trinidad and Tobago hailed as one in the top ten improvers in the 2015 Doing Business Report" October 30, 2014:- Released in Washington on Wednesday 29th October, 2014, the 2015 Doing Business Report ranks Trinidad and Tobago among the top ten performers worldwide! Specifically on page 5 of the Report it states that “among the 21 economies with the most reforms making it easier to do business in 2013/14, ten (10) stand out as having improved the most in performance on the Doing Business indicators: Tajikistan, Benin, Togo, Côte d’Ivoire, Senegal, Trinidad and Tobago, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Azerbaijan, Ireland and the United Arab Emirates. Together, these 10 top improvers implemented 40 regulatory reforms making it easier to do business.” The Report further states that “being recognized as top improvers shows that thanks to serious efforts in regulatory reform in the past year, they made the biggest advances toward frontier in regulatory practice.” Senator the Honourable Vasant Bharath, Minister of Trade, Industry, Investment and Communications said of the results ‘we are working overtime to achieve our goals. I want to thank the lead on the Ministry’s reform package, Mr. Randall Karim, Director, Policy and Strategy and his hard working team in the Policy and Strategy Directorate for their fortuitous contribution in positioning Trinidad and Tobago as making business easier’. In a letter addressed to the Minister of Trade, Industry, Investment and Communication, Director of the World Bank’s Caribbean Country Management Unit – Latin America and the Caribbean Region, Mrs. Sophie Sirtaine said ‘I would like to convey my sincere congratulations to Trinidad and Tobago on its ranking in the 2015 Doing Business Report … which places your country once more in a leadership position in the region.’ As the only economy from Latin America and the Caribbean who is ranked among the top ten improvers worldwide, she noted that ‘the reforms your country engaged on span across the highest number of indicators in the Caribbean’. Furthermore, ‘such reforms are leading to tangible benefits for entrepreneurs: starting a business now takes 11.5 days for an entrepreneur in Trinidad and Tobago – on par with international best practice – down from 35.5 days in 2013’. Main highlights of Trinidad and Tobago’s performance in the 2015 Doing Business Report: • Trinidad and Tobago is among the 10 top improvers worldwide (the only economy from Latin America and the Caribbean) • Trinidad and Tobago has gained 12 ranks • Trinidad and Tobago’s reforms span across the highest number of indicators in the Caribbean • Trinidad and Tobago made starting a business easier by introducing online systems for employer and tax registration - Starting a business now takes 11.5 days for an entrepreneur in Trinidad and Tobago - on par with international best practice - down from 35.5 days in 2013 • Trinidad and Tobago is nearly 4% closer than last year to global best practices in business regulation, as measured by its Distance to Frontier (DTF) rank. The DTF shows how each economy performs not only vis-a-vis other economies but also in absolute terms • Trinidad and Tobago made resolving insolvency easier by introducing a new restructuring proceeding. It also strengthened the rights of secured creditors during reorganization procedures The Government of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago realizes that a critical component of attracting and retaiing investors is an enabling environment for business. This ranking in the 2015 Doing Business Report cements the fact that the Government has in fact been pursuing business enabling initiatives through an aggressive package of institutional, legal and administrative reforms with the aim of improving the local investment climate. And our work for you the citizens of Trinidad and Tobago continues.

Congo/Congolese tag

Order: Reorder
Duration: 7:38
Updated: 03 Nov 2014

Congo tag What’s your name and where are you from? My name is Felicite Kazadi and I’m from DRC- the big Congo. What part of Congo are you from? I am pretty much of a mixture, my dad is from Kasai and my mom is from Bandundu. Last time you were in Congo? The last time I was in Congo was in 2010. Well, that’s the last time I was there for a longer period of time. However, I do go to Congo often for holidays and stuff like that. Do you speak your language? If so, say something in your language. Yes, I do speck my language. I speak Lingala, Kikongo and French. I can say some words in those languages. Like, Na lingi yo, which is I love you in lingala; Mbote, which pretty much sound the same as in lingala but it still means hi; and Bonjour, which is good morning in French. Do you like Congolese food? What is your favourite? OMG! I love Congolese food. If I don’t eat it, I don’t feel right. I mean, I can eat rise or anything else, but when I eat Congolese food, I really feel like I’ve eaten something. My favourite Congolese food is fufu, which can be translated as cassava bread in English. I mean, that’s how better we can do at translating it. Ok, I feel like eating right now. What do you like the most about Congolese culture? I like, the hospitality. It’s hard to feel alienated in Congo. Congolese people are very nice and it’s easy for anyone to go in Congo and feat in any group they choose. Congolese people, pretty much allow everyone to be who they are, while they’re still part of a society or part of a group. So, I love the Congolese culture. What do you hate the most about Congolese culture? The thing I hate the most about Congo is irresponsibility. It’s like, every time something happens in our country, we always try to blame to government or blame the presidents; instead of trying to work together with them, putting suggestions about what we want to happen in our country, we blame them instead. It’s like we’re always playing the blame game and I hate that. What is your Congolese name and what does it mean? My Congolese name is Tshiyamba. It’s in my dad’s language, Tshiluba, which I unfortunately don’t know how to speak. I’ve spent most of my time in Bandundu, than in Kasai. I’m sure my name has a meaning, but I just don’t know what it means. What do you like about Congolese guys? I think Congolese guys are sweet. They’re very sweet. Usually, when they like a girl/a woman, they pretty much like you for who you are. They don’t like fake people and I value and respect that a lot about them. So, they’re nice. What makes you different from other Congolese? I think I’m a pretty closed person. I love spending time with people, but I don’t really like being involved were there is a crowd. I don’t like parties, I go to parties once in a while. So, I hate anything that looks like a crowd to me. What is a ridiculous question you think you asked about your country/culture? Once at school, one of my friends asked me if we had roads in Congo. I think that one was very ridiculous. Who is your favourite Congolese artist? My favourite Congolese artist has always been Jose Nzita, but I do have some songs that I like in Mike Kalambay’s albums. But I like gospel music in Congo. I am more into gospel than Fally or Werrason music, however I appreciate what they do, because they promote our country in a positive way. So, I appreciate what they do. Thanks guys, I really hope you’ve enjoyed watching this, don’t forget to subscribe for more videos. My Facebook is Felly Kazadi if you want to know more about me. Stay blessed and love you lots mwah.

Improving Health in DR Congo, Brick by Brick

Updated: 04 Sep 2014

The health center is a central feature of the health care system in DR Congo. While each health zone has a large referral hospital where more serious cases are referred, the smaller health centers, scattered among the villages, are where the day-to-day primary health care activities such as prenatal checkups, vaccinations and preventive care take place. With cracked walls and a leaky roof, the Mama Wetu Health Center in DR Congo’s Kasai Occidental province was too worn and too small to meet the needs of the surrounding community. After adding up the cost of needed repairs and renovations to bring it up to standards, the ASSP Project determined that it would cost about 20% less to build a brand new health center than to renovate.

Harambee Projects: Congo, three health clinics in the outskirts of Kinshasa

Order: Reorder
Duration: 2:29
Updated: 27 Dec 2014

The city of Kinshasa has 10 million inhabitants, most of which are poorly nourished and depend on subsistence farming for their livelihoods, in a country in which 74% of the population is malnourished and 80% live in absolute poverty. This precarious state of general health has given rise to the need for medical services that the public health system is not able to meet due to a lack of resources, infrastructures and adequately trained personnel. The Monkole Hospital has tried to respond to this emergency by offering four general medical services -maternity, pediatrics, internal medicine and general surgery-, creating three clinics (in Eliba, Kimbondo and Moluka) in the outskirts of the city (that are not easy to reach) and by implementing training programs for medical and paramedical personnel. The project has the following objectives: - Reinforce the human and technological capabilities of the health clinics in Eliba, Kimbondo and Moluka; - Improve professional training for nurses by strengthening the Institut Superieur en Sciences Infirmières –ISSI.

Terrorist attacks repulsed In the Democratic Republic Of Congo

Order: Reorder
Duration: 3:38
Updated: 30 Dec 2013

The Democratic Republic of Congo's army has repulsed several attacks in the capital, Kinshasa, by an "unknown terrorist group", the government says. The state TV headquarters, the international airport and a military base in the city were all targeted. The information minister said the situation was now under control and about 46 attackers had been killed. Meanwhile, the army has also clashed with unknown gunmen on the outskirts of Lubumbashi, a military spokesman said. He told the BBC that some of the attackers in Lubumbashi, the main city of DR Congo's southern mineral-rich Katanga province, had been arrested. President Joseph Kabila, who won his second term in office two years ago, is touring Katanga but was not under any threat, DR Congo's Information Minister Lambert Mende told the BBC. 'Shooting everywhere' Mr Mende said the attackers at the state TV and radio headquarters had been armed with weapons such as knives, and there was "no chance of them even to maintain their positions, even for a single hour". "People were frightened when security personnel were firing against these attackers," the minister told the BBC's Focus on Africa radio programme after visiting the RTNC headquarters. He said the attackers numbered fewer than 100 and that the security forces had killed about 46 of them and captured about 10. On the government's side, an army colonel was killed when the attackers struck the military base, Mr Mende told the BBC. He said he understood that two staff members forced to read a statement on TV were safe. Reuters said the statement appeared to be a political message against President Kabila's government. The embassy has also received reports that there are police and military checkpoints and barricades in many places" US embassy statement "Gideon Mukungubila has come to free you from the slavery of the Rwandan," said the message, according to Reuters. In 1997, Rwandan-backed troops ousted DR Congo's long-serving ruler Mobutu Sese Seko and installed Laurent Kabila - the father of incumbent leader Joseph Kabila - as president. According to Reuters, Gideon is the nickname used for religious leader Paul Joseph Mukungubila by his followers. He ran unsuccessfully for president in 2006. Mr Mende told the BBC the shooting in Lubumbashi was linked to a disarmament programme and not to the attacks in the capital. The armed youths stormed the studio in Kinshasa around 08:40 local time (07:40 GMT) during a live magazine programme, shouting slogans - one of which in French said "for the liberation of Congo". In a separate incident, a taxi driver told AFP that he had heard about "six or seven shots" from heavy weapons fired at the Tshatshi military camp. The shots were heard between 09:00 and 09:30 local time. After RTNC went off air, a customs official at Ndjili airport told Reuters: "Shooting has started here. They are shooting everywhere. We are all hiding." Kinshasa RTNC TV has now resumed normal programming. The US embassy in Kinshasa has advised all US citizens not to travel around the city until further notice. "The embassy has received multiple reports of armed engagements and fighting around Kinshasa... The embassy has also received reports that there are police and military checkpoints and barricades in many places," it said in a statement posted on its Facebook page at 10:00 local time.

Abby Martin Breaks the Set on ISIS Targets, ‘Success’ in Somalia, Militarizing Ebola Crisis, and Ukraine Political History. LIKE Breaking the Set @ http://fb.me/JournalistAbbyMartin FOLLOW Abby Martin @ http://twitter.com/AbbyMartin EPISODE BREAKDOWN: On this episode of Breaking the Set, Abby Martin remarks on President Obama’s strategy on fighting ISIS, calling out the lack of a timeline and continuation of tactics that keep America in perpetual war. Abby then calls out President Obama’s double speak when citing military operations in Somalia and Yemen as case studies of success for America’s war on terror, highlighting the abysmal civilian casualty rate of US drone strikes abroad. Abby then reports on the latest updates on the growing Ebola crisis in West Africa, and speaks with Kamable Musulvuli, spokesperson for Friends of the Congo about the announcement that the US will commit 3,000 troops to fight the spread of the virus. BTS wraps up the show with an interview with Historian and American University professor, Peter Kuznick, discussing the political history of Ukraine and the surrounding region and how it plays into how the current crisis is unfolding.

There's no denying that the rise of the private military contractor is transforming the way we wage war. They earn four times more than regular soldiers, act with impunity and - in Iraq - outnumber all non-US soldiers combined. ‘Private Armies’ follows the training and deployment of these men. From skidding around a racing track, practising escaping from kidnappers, to dodging bullets in Baghdad, it’s an eye-opening look at life as a private soldier.

Investors worldwide have poured billions of dollars into the country’s rich copper and cobalt deposits, while gold and coltan smuggling sustains rebel militia and criminal networks within the army in the east, and international oil prospectors are seeking discoveries along the Ugandan border. The US considers a cobalt mine in Congo vital to its interests, according to Wikileaks cables. One would assume it would be in the interests of these investors to broker peace. With all the publicity given to unrest erupting in the rest of the world, I am puzzled as to why, what is basically genocide and terrorism on a major scale is left unreported and largely unchecked. The consequences for the people of the Congo, particularly its women, can at best be described as horrifying. The brutality of the warring factions clearly knows no bounds, as highlighted by one young lady who indicated that troops would force fathers to rape their daughters and then kill them anyway. One brave father who refused to do it, had his eyes plucked out and ears cut off. He still refused and so he was killed, as was his two sons, but not before watching his daughter being raped by the militia. The Doctor indicated that all of these acts are generally carried out publically and are designed to ‘destroy psychologically as well as physically’. As is often the case in third world countries, the women, face the added trauma of being outcast from their community post the rape and struggling to support themselves.

Estimating the costs of war is a dirty business. Sure governments can tell you how much they spent on tanks, but what about rebuilding costs? What about the lives lost? What about the costs to healthcare systems that struggle to help veterans with PTSD many years down the line? There are so many hidden costs to war that there is absolutely no way to put a price tag on any given conflict. Which is why we won't (at least not entirely).

Lonely Planet Traveller magazine (http://bit.ly/lpmagazine) went to Brazzaville in the Republic of Congo earlier this year, to explore the fascinating 'sapeur' subculture. --- "Sapeur stands for Société des Ambianceurs et des Personnes Élégantes (Society of Tastemakers and Elegant People). It’s a legacy of the French colonial era, and not just a way of dressing but a way of life. A sapeur must be kind and cheerful, and cannot do evil to people. For me, clothes are a pleasure – they make me happy. When I walk down the street in Brazzaville, everyone looks at me and they call out. They shout ‘Vieux la Mam’ – a nickname which comes from the name of the restaurant where I used to work as a cook. They see an old man with white hair, but say: ‘He dresses well, we must do what he does.’ Even the young people follow me and try to dress like me. Being the oldest sapeur makes me very proud. My father and grandfather were sapeurs, and many of my 12 children and 30 grandchildren are continuing the tradition. It is like a custom in my family." - Sila Gregoire, Sapeur, Brazzaville, Republic of the Congo --- Learn more about the Congo and why it was recently selected on of our Best in Travel 2015 countries, here: http://bit.ly/lpcongo --- Host/writer: Duncan Craig Editor: Chad Davis

Sibiti Music : Alright,Silent Partner; YouTube Audio Library The Republic of the Congo (French: République du Congo), also known as Congo Republic or Congo-Brazzaville, is a country located in Central Africa. It is bordered by Gabon, Cameroon, the Central African Republic, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the Angolan exclave of Cabinda. The region was dominated by Bantu-speaking tribes, who built trade links leading into the Congo River basin. Congo-Brazzaville was formerly part of the French colony of Equatorial Africa. Upon independence in 1960, the former colony of French Congo became the Republic of the Congo. The People's Republic of the Congo was a Marxist–Leninist single-party state from 1970 to 1991. Multi-party elections have been held since 1992, although a democratically elected government was ousted in the 1997 Republic of the Congo Civil War. Bantu-speaking peoples who founded tribes during the Bantu expansions largely displaced and absorbed the earliest inhabitants of the region, the Pygmy people, about 1500 BC. The Bakongo, a Bantu ethnicity that also occupied parts of present-day Angola, Gabon and Democratic Republic of the Congo, formed the basis for ethnic affinities and rivalries among those countries. Several Bantu kingdoms—notably those of the Kongo, the Loango, and the Teke—built trade links leading into the Congo River basin. The Portuguese explorer Diogo Cão reached the mouth of the Congo in 1484. Commercial relationships quickly grew up between the inland Bantu kingdoms and European merchants who traded various commodities, manufactured goods, and slaves captured from the hinterlands. For centuries the Congo river delta served as a major commercial hub for transatlantic trade. However, direct European colonization of the area began in the late 19th century and eroded the power of the Bantu societies in the region. The area north of the Congo River came under French sovereignty in 1880 as a result of Pierre de Brazza's treaty with Makoko of the Bateke. This Congo Colony became known first as French Congo, then as Middle Congo in 1903. In 1908, France organized French Equatorial Africa (AEF), comprising Middle Congo, Gabon, Chad, and Oubangui-Chari (the modern Central African Republic). The French designated Brazzaville as the federal capital. Economic development during the first 50 years of colonial rule in Congo centered on natural-resource extraction. The methods were often brutal: establishment of the Congo–Ocean Railroad following World War I has been estimated to have cost at least 14,000 lives. During the Nazi occupation of France during World War II, Brazzaville functioned as the symbolic capital of Free France between 1940 and 1943. The Brazzaville Conference of 1944 heralded a period of major reform in French colonial policy. Congo benefited from the postwar expansion of colonial administrative and infrastructure spending as a result of its central geographic location within AEF and the federal capital at Brazzaville. It also received a local legislature after the adoption of the 1946 constitution that established the Fourth Republic. Following the revision of the French constitution that established the Fifth Republic in 1958, the AEF dissolved into its constituent parts, each of which became an autonomous colony within the French Community. During these reforms, Middle Congo became known as the Republic of the Congo in 1958[9] and published its first constitution in 1959. Antagonism between the pro-Opangault Mbochis and the pro-Youlou Balalis resulted in a series of riots in Brazzaville in February 1959, which the French Army subdued. The Republic of the Congo received full independence from France on August 15, 1960. Fulbert Youlou ruled as the country's first president until labour elements and rival political parties instigated a three-day uprising that ousted him. The Congolese military took charge of the country briefly and installed a civilian provisional government headed by Alphonse Massamba-Débat. Under the 1963 constitution, Massamba-Débat was elected President for a five-year term. During Massamba-Débat's term in office the regime adopted "scientific socialism" as the country's constitutional ideology. In 1965, Congo established relations with the Soviet Union, the People's Republic of China, North Korea and North Vietnam. Massamba-Débat was unable to reconcile various institutional and ideological factions and his regime ended abruptly with a bloodless coup d'état in August 1968.

Congo, get to, get to Congo
Get to, get to Congo
Get to, get to Congo
Get to, get to Congo
Now could we go to the square they call Congo?
I need to go and lay my feet upon the stone
Where the first of us stood before, before, before
Where we sat and played to revive our depleted souls
Where we went to forget our freedom was not our own
Where we went to hold onto the memories of way back home
Now could we?
Now could we?
Now could we go?
Get to Cong, get to Cong Congo
Get to Cong, get to Congo
Get to Cong, get to Cong Congo
Get to Cong, get to Congo
Now could we go to the square they call Congo?
I need to go and lay my feet upon the stones
Where the first of us stood before, before, before
Where we made music in remembrance of human bodies sold
Where the sound of an old pain became a new music of hope
Where they paved me a road so I could get to Congo
Now could we?
Now could we?
Now could we go?
Get to Cong, get to Cong Congo
Get to Cong, get to Congo
Get to Cong, get to Cong Congo
Get to Cong, get to Congo
Get to Cong, get to Cong Congo
Get to Cong, get to Congo
Get to Cong, get to Cong Congo

And I would not be here today if they had not been
So displaced, so displaced, but still
But still they made time to sing and play a song
A song in Congo

You say that I put chains on you
But I don't think that's really true
But if you want to be free from me
You gotta lose me in another world
Send me to the Congo I'm free to leave
There's always somewhere anybody can lead
Send me to the Congo you have to believe
You can do it if you wanna just do what you please
Like a soldier ant
I will wait for the signal to act
To take a walk right through the door
If you don't want me here any more
Send me to the Congo I'm free to leave
There's always somewhere anybody can lead
Send me to the Congo you have to believe
You can do it if you wanna just do what you please
Into my heart you came
And gave a whole new meaning to my life
Into my world you brought a light
I thought it never would go out
Send me to the Congo I'm free to leave
There's always somewhere anybody can lead
Send me to the Congo you have to believe
You can do it if you wanna just do what you please
You can send me to the Congo I'm free to leave
There's always somewhere anybody can lead
Yes you can send me to the Congo, you have to believe
You can do it if you wanna just do what you please
I would never be the one to say you had no reason
To want me somewhere else far far away
But someday you may understand, someday you will see
That someone who would die for you is all I've ever been
Congo the Congo, if that's how it's got to be
Congo the Congo, if that's what you want from me
I would never be the one to say you had no reason
To want me somewhere else far far away
Someday you may understand someday you will see...
