The Second Congo War began in the Democratic Republic of the Congo in August 1998, little more than a year after the First Congo War, and involved some of the same issues. Eventually involving belligerents from across the African continent, the war officially ended in July 2003 when the Transitional Government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo took power. Although a peace agreement was signed in 2002, violence has continued in many regions of the country, especially in the east. In 2008, the International Rescue Committee estimated that the war and its aftermath had caused 5.4 million deaths, principally through disease and malnutrition, making the Second Congo War the deadliest conflict worldwide since World War II.

Het verhaal van Jean-Pierre Bemba en de Tweede Congolese Burgeroorlog
Belgian CongoDe tweede Congolese burgeroorlog was een conflict dat plaatsvond tussen 1998 en 2003. Het was in wezen een regionale oorlog, waarbij acht Afrikaanse landen betrokken waren en waarbij verschillende Congolese rebellengroepen vochten tegen de regering van president Laurent-Désiré Kabila. De oorlog werd aangewakkerd door de betrokkenheid van Rwanda en Uganda, die beiden zochten naar invloed in Oost-Congo en het verwijderen van Kabila, die zij zagen als een bedreiging voor hun belangen in de regio. Andere landen zoals Angola, Zimbabwe en Namibië steunden Kabila en stuurden troepen om hem te helpen in de strijd. De oorlog eindigde uiteindelijk met een vredesakkoord in 2003.
