In the late 19th century, during the scramble for Africa, King Leopold II of Belgium seized a large landmass in Central Africa.

By doing this, he created the Congo Free State, but this name was a misnomer as it was anything but free.

King Leopold’s rule over the Congo Free State was defined by tales of brutality, horrific conditions, and massive amounts of death.
