The Republic of the Congo (French: République du Congo), also known as Congo, Congo Republic,West Congo, or Congo-Brazzaville, is a country located in Central Africa. It is bordered by five countries: Gabon to the west; Cameroon to the northwest; the Central African Republic to the northeast; the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the east and south; and the Angolan exclave of Cabinda to the southwest.
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 one-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 and President Denis Sassou Nguesso has ruled for 26 of the past 36 years.

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.

Political parties in the Democratic Republic of Congo have struck a deal that will see President Joseph Kabila step down next year. According to a leading mediator from the Catholic Church, Kabila will step down following presidential election due to be held before the end of 2017. Kabila has reportedly agreed not to change the constitution to run for a third term. Earlier this month, the UN said Congolese security forces killed at least 40 people and rounded up 460 others during demonstrations that rocked the country. The protests broke out after President Kabila refused to step down despite his mandate expired on December 20.

The Democratic Republic of the Congo, also known as the DRC, Congo-Kinshasa, DROC or just Congo is my second country of origin; it is the country where my mother has her roots, as well as my father. It is a country located in central Africa and the continent's second largest country after Algeria. With its 75 million people, the DRC is the most populous French speaking country in the world and it is the world's 11th largest country. From 1971 to 1997 it was named Zaïre by the former president Mobutu who also changed the names of country's cities, which had Belgian names to African names. It borders the Republic of the Congo, also known as Congo-Brazzaville or the Congo,(which by the way is my primary country of origin, because my father's primary roots are there), the Central African Repub...
The Democratic Republic of Congo has cut its economic growth forecast for 2016 from 9 percent to 4.3 percent. [Low commodity prices are continuing to erode much-needed government revenue. Africa's top copper producer relies on its mining and smaller oil industry for most of its export earnings. Copper output slumped 14 percent in the first half of the year. Cobalt, the metal used in lithium-ion batteries, slid by 13 percent over the same period. The government has also slashed its budget by 22 percent in response to low commodity revenues. Mozambique is another country battling with low commodity prices. Nearly 4000 coal miners have lost their jobs in the past year, as mining firms such as Brazil's Vale scale back production. Vale operates an open cast coal mine in the north-west. It's le...

“La Sape” is a unique movement based in Congo that unites fashion-conscious men who are ready to splurge money they don’t really have on designer clothes.

They call themselves “sapeurs” – members of the “La Sape” movement. “La Sape” comes from French and stands for “The Society of Ambiance-Makers and Elegant People”.

The soldiers who speak Lingala and have FARDC outfits are here slaughtering the so-called militants of Kamwena Nsapu. It is a war crime, incontestably, and a crime against humanity. Here is the sequence of this massacre: The video begins with armed soldiers saying that "they are not afraid to die, we will show them" They walk and in front of them they have UNARMED CIVILIANS who believe in witchcraft; The myth is that they can not be killed by bullets; However, the FARDC is asking them to open fire on civilians who had a stand off, it seems. “L...
People of Tanzania, SA and MALAWI, the people of DRC are thankful to the troop contribution your country has made to fight terrorism in our native country. Although we strongly regret the loss of one of Tanzanian forces, and the wounded among the SA army, we are speechless and will be always thankful for your back up. The DRC has been harassed by its neighbor RWANDA that has kept sending terrorists despite the death of 5 million. Congolese are to blame because its government did not back its patriotic soldiers. The last week of your troops involvement on the battlefield has made a big difference. The Rwandan army that was posted lest than 2 miles from Goma (a town of 1 million people) have been pushed back to more than 13 miles. The Congo forces are also working in discipline lines and hav...

EXCLUSIVE: VICE News Meets Barack Obama: http://bit.ly/1wT03Bi Last summer, the group known as the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) swept from Syria into northern Iraq, routing Iraqi security forces and seizing the city of Mosul. Soon afterward, the group declared the establishment of a dubious "caliphate" in the area it controls and rebranded itself the Islamic State. With Iraq's army weakened and radical militants advancing on Baghdad, the country's Iran-backed Shia militias — which have their own history of sectarian abuses — fought back, halting the Islamic State's progress. The militias have successfully combated Islamic State fighters on the ground with the assistance of air strikes from a US-led military coalition. But their growing influence within Iraq's government amid acc...

While some places are on this list due to armed conflicts and violence, other places are on the list thanks to physical or biological calamities. Regardless of the reasons, the one thing all of these places have in common is that most western governments do not advise travel to them unless it is absolutely necessary. These are the 25 most dangerous places to visit as a tourist. Also, before we continue, just remember, being on this list doesn't necessarily mean the entire country is bad to visit (although it can). Just make sure to check on regional travel warnings.

It is a deep dive into the heartland of Africa, into the mysterious Democratic Republic of Congo. A dream of many backpackers and often cited as a dangerous country to travel. Moving from A to B in the DRC is an adventure for outsiders and still challenge for locals and not everything is true about what comes into your mind for Congo. Yes, it still struggles for peace in its eastern region. The UN and other organizations trying to stabilize and support the country and as many refugees from other countries flood over the border, it is a challenge to be faced here. Despite all these efforts, for me Congo resembles still an authentic and real Africa off the beaten track. Rarely a visitor crosses into the DRC and while in Congo for little bit over three weeks, I only met two other travelers - ...

The Congo contains some of the most fascinating natural wildlife habitats in Africa. This fascinating country is home to a remarkable creature, the Mountain Gorilla. Our destination is the Virunga National Park that extends along the borders of the Congo, Uganda and Ruanda. Close to the border with Uganda is the village of Goma that contains several dwellings and a good market that displays an amazing variety of exotic fruit. After a short but very welcome break the journey continues in a four-wheel drive minibus but this does not last very long as it soon becomes necessary to travel by foot, a daunting prospect but also one inspired by the possibility of spotting the rare Mountain Gorilla in its natural habitat on a journey that will take around two days. The excitement continues to moun...
Changing the face of African travel, the Republic of the Congo has opened up Central Africa’s great equatorial rainforests and intrepid travellers can now walk through sunlit jungle in search of gorillas and chimpanzees, stake out salt licks to wait for shy forest buffalo and elephant, and sweep a spotlight around at night to look for rare antelope and stealthy predators. With most of its population concentrated in the south and the capital Brazzaville, Congo has managed to keep most of its northern forests and wetlands intact, the epitome of which is the spectacular Odzala-Kokoua National Park. Here, over 13 000 km² of primary rainforest provides Central Africa’s most important sanctuary for lowland gorillas and forest elephants. Odzala’s best accommodation is a trio of luxurious fly-in ...
3x3 52 486 is an experimental short film made by Attila Lorant. The film was made with stop motion technique, photographed frame by frame. Approximately 7500 photos from 8 countries (Czech Republic, Egypt, Congo, Hungary, Sweden, Turkey, United States of America and Spain) were used in this production. This experimental film constitutes a part of a new project - called 3x3 52 486 - of a versatile artist (photographer, writer, director, designer) Attila Lorant. The gist of the project is a 148 pages long photo album, along which an other film was also produced - a 5 minutes long "How to make" documentary. From this project, an exhibition and an iPad application are also coming out soon. “3x3 is a mosaic, a diary, an encyclopaedia. It is a personal project, a self-confession. It’s a medit...

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 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
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
