The Atrocities of The Congo Free State

Описание: The Congo Free State was the private property of King Leopold the Second. It was a colony in the Congo Basin that existed for only 23 years. His dominion over the 30 Million Congolese people resulted in the deaths of millions in pursuit of profit. Mutilations, slavery and disease were rampant as the worst of European Colonialism.


In this video we will discuss the founding of the Congo Free State and the motivations of one of history’s most despicable individuals and cover the litany of crimes committed in the goal of making wealth for a Belgian King who never set foot in the country he brutalised.
