Seen from inside and outside
How the world sees this country this week: the news abroad, pictures and videos.
The Republic of the Congo, also commonly known as the Congo Republic, Congo-Brazzaville, or simply Congo, is a country located on the western coast of Central Africa to the west of the Congo River. It is bordered to the west by Gabon, to the northwest by Cameroon, to the northeast by the Central African Republic, to the southeast by the Democratic Republic of the Congo, to the south by the Angolan exclave of Cabinda. The region was dominated by Bantu-speaking tribes at least 3,000 years ago, who built trade links leading into the Congo River basin.
