Your mom

Unless you were a native.

Do you think you're being funny you bastard?

I wish we knew more about survivors of that hell, by this time in the video some would still be alive, just very old. I want to hear Congolese pass down stories from their survivor ancestors. I imagine a Belgian Congo in the 1910s, 1920s, 1930s, and even 1940s would have people walking around mutilated and traumatized, unless it was so bad they died during the 'Free' State period or shortly thereafter.

I think it’s that one of the worst histories in the world hand chopping off colonialism and then a Civil War

They didnt supports france ivassion.. which had been caused racism in kongo and lots of bl0odshreds. Remember france & nazi rulers are lover of racism , they use it for overtaken earth resources. Individual americans are frendly but also didnt knew its comming

Most likely, the caravan brought everything it needed with them, including gasoline and probably spare parts and tires.

Magneto! You should look at videos about King Leopold and the Congo. He created a genocide that is little talked about. Read "King Leopolds Ghost"

"That is little talked about"? - it's all over the Intenet.

Not really Safety Lucas, the exploitation in Africa is still rather bad.

America didn't join the war till 42

nazis invaded belgium invaded in may 1940--at peace until then. the congo was never part of the war [except to supply the usa uranium for hiroshima].

SICK propaganda Vid

From what I read (Wikipedia), while the Belgian government never fled to the Congo, in the same style as Portugal's government fleeing to Brazil in the Napoleonic Wars, after Nazi Germany conquered Belgium in 1940, Belgian Congo just continued operation under Belgian authorities already based there. It wasn't part of the Reich, it was just a colony continuing to operate without its patron state existing anymore. There was nothing else like it in WWII (except maybe the Dutch East Indies, but Japan took them over in 1942, while Congo was never invaded during WWII or formally taken by the Reich). So, if this is the first half of 1940, it's still very much just 'business as usual' in the Congo. I assume it must be, since there's no mention of something like "while the mother country is subdued by the upheaval in Europe, the Belgian Congo continues thriving thanks to the hwite man's innovation and genius" in the same cadence as the rest of the documentary.

The horror in Congo IS now ! ! ! Stupid boy !

Mark Enriquez most major oil companies were there selling gas lube oil service etc. I worked there for 2 years a ways back.

Capital cities and major towns.

But what about gas stations in the jungle?

@@edwardmoore5325 they didn't show the column of bearers carrying tins of fuel

@@edwardmoore5325I think there were eight support trucks in total, and they probably carried everything the caravan needed through the jungle, including gasoline.

Why'd u be there if you wanted to hear piano then.

stfu

Eugene Eduward you are now boi

You spell boy with an "i" rather than an "y." So are you a bottom boy, or one of those weird effeminate guys who likes to top? I mean you're obviously gay, and there's nothing wrong with that, I'll pound that ass for you...

Awhh dream big :) Too bad many are coming to your countries and mating with your cheapest white women. Look at France and Britain 💋

@Maitre Mark So does he.

@@MirageTader To whom were you addressing your remark?

are you actually dumb?

Pfffft....he never was there.He never saw Congo.It was a abstract thing to Leopold II. Most people does not know but he tried to sell the Congo to Belgium but the parlement refused it, Belgium did not want it. In one way or another he succeeded with bribery .

Of course he is dumb, he is Belgian

Is this comment supposed to be sarcastic? Leopold II was a mass murderer.

@@flyby2300 No ! It's not Leopold, he never go to congo ! The murders is governors and privates provincials administrators ! And they's comes from everywhere, Danish, Norway, English, German, French, Belgium.... And more ! You knows nothing about the real history. To easy talk Leopold is guilty, look first the beautiful colonialism England History, and start wih Tasmania !
