History lesson: When the Democratic Republic of the Congo gained its independence in the June 30, 1960, one of then the President, Patrice Lumumba, the first ordered once to tell the Belgians residing in the country to leave immediately. As they did, demonstrated below. Planes coming from Belgium pick up their refugees back to Europe. At first the DRC enjoyed a moderate standard of living thanks to the infrastructure Belgians left behind, but quickly went south once Dictator Mobutu Sese Seko took over in 1965 and ruled for 26 years. This is what many consider the beginning of the decline of it post-independence. And things sure aren't looking to go in the right direction. In fact, many Congolese are looking for the Belgians to come back to help rebuild the country again.
