What impresses me about Kongo?

        


Among many cultures in the world there are many who I really liked, among them is the Kongo. The culture of the Republic of Congo has its roots in the contributions of Loango peoples and Teke Bakong who lived in the area currently occupied by the republic.

 After the arrival of the Portuguese in the fifteenth century, the coastal kingdoms benefited most from the slave trade of the peoples

  The art of the Republic of Congo is one of the best in Africa and the strong traditions of both wood carvers Kongo and Teke are greatly appreciated. Realistic features carved figures often represent ancestors. Some of the more stylized figures are fetishes, people believe are inhabited by a spirit moreover public education is theoretically free and compulsory for children under 16, the country has universities, education between the ages of six and sixteen is compulsory and students who complete six years of primary school and seven years of secondary school obtained a bachelor's degree. In college, students can earn a bachelor's degree in three years. Which I think is very important because in these parts of the world, it is believed that the lack of education abounds and it's good to know they have certain educational opportunities. 

      The fields of the Congo is the source of a variety of crops. These include corn, rice, cassava, sweet potatoes, yams, taro, bananas, tomatoes, squash and varieties of peas and nuts. These foods are eaten throughout the country, but there are also regional dishes. The most important export crops are coffee and oil, addition Congo has a wide variety of flora and fauna besides Congo is one of the most biologically diverse countries on the planet. Among the many species that inhabit its territory we can find two species of chimpanzees, the common chimpanzee and the bonobo or pygmy chimpanzee, the mountain gorilla; the okapi and the Congo peacock. Five of the country's national parks are listed as World Heritage

       


 Since 1976 in the Democratic Republic of Congo appeared disease that threaten the country, Ebola. Cause a disease characterized by bleeding after 48 hours of having acquired the infection. After decades of dictatorship, war and conflict, the Democratic Republic of Congo has lived in the middle of this decade the first elections in its history. The elections were intended to approve the new Constitution, elections for president and governors of the provinces.

      Christianity is the majority religion in Congo is the only African nation, which occupies a place in the list of the 10 largest Catholic countries in the world. They are truly interesting things in totally different regions that we live in Central America.
