Conflict
The conflict has been the world’s bloodiest since World War II. The First and Second Congo Wars, which sparked the violence, involved multiple foreign armies and investors from Rwanda, Zimbabwe, Angola, Namibia, Chad, Libya and Sudan, among others, and has been so devastating that it is sometimes called the “African World War.”
In response to violence carried out by exiled Rwandan Hutu genocidaires, Rwandan and Ugandan forces invaded the Democratic Republic of Congo in 1996. Its what is known as the First Congo War, Mobutu Sese Seko was overthrown and replaced by Laurent-Desire Kabila. Beginning in 1998, Kabila accused Rwanda of exploiting the DRC’s minerals and was aided by Angola, Namibia, and Zimbabwe in a successful effort to push Rwandan and Ugandan forces out of the country.
