@theafroaussie It’s recommended to use « in DR Congo » instead of « The Congo » because 1/ there are 2 Congo 🇨🇬 🇨🇩 2/ the use of “the” is historically linked to colonial-era nomenclature, which many Congolese consider inappropriate or insensitive.

[CongoleseMusic @YoNzinga]

They need to stop using “ The Congo” we are literally tired .🫠 like which one in the first place. They are two of them

There’s a misconception that Africans didn’t utilize their mineral resources before colonialism

We now have sufficient evidence for precolonial mining of Gold, Tin & copper,
And that these metals were used in coin mints at the coast and furnished grave goods in Great Zimbabwe
