Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the colonial era by examining how the Congo Free State was established and resulted in Leopold II accumulating power and amassing a fortune by exploiting the region's resources and people. The author provides an in-depth look at the historical context that, in part, led to the Berlin Conference of 1884-85, which recognized the Congo Free State and Leopold II as its sovereign. Through the lens of colonialism and imperialism, the book explores the complex interactions between European powers, African societies, and the devastating human cost of unfettered exploitation under the rule of King Leopold II. Ultimately, this book offers a sobering reminder of the destructive consequences of unchecked greed and the perils of colonial rule. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780266654544_0
